Review: AN OAK TREE, Young Vic
by Cindy Marcolina - May 7, 2025
Divisive and challenging, Tim Crouch is a one-in-a-century playwright. Whether you agree with his methods or not, his artistry is unmatched. He interrogates form and style, delivering live experiences rather than straight drama. An Oak Tree is still a pivotal piece for many. Now celebrating the 20th anniversary of the play, Crouch invites one unrehearsed actor to perform with him each night.

The Koala Who Could is a bestselling children’s book by Rachel Bright and Jim Field, which has been Adapted and Directed for theatre by Emma Earle. Production Company Nicholl Entertainment is known for their expertise in large-scale puppetry and the adaptation does not disappoint, with lively expressive figures aplenty. The tale follows Kevin the Koala, who is overwhelmed by anxiety and is painfully unable to un-cling from the familiarity of his home. The soothing eucalyptus tree represents safety, but also limitations.

It would be fair to say Weather Girl was the talk of last year’s Edinburgh Fringe. With a Scotsman Fringe First, a Lustrum Award, and a queue stretching back into the Summerhall courtyard, it was only a matter of time until this sweltering success got a much-anticipated London transfer.
