Fresh from a five star award-nominated (Offie nominations for Most Promising New Playwright and Best Female Performance) run at Soho Theatre, All The Things I Lied About is a fearlessly honest show for the post-truth era.

Celebrations continue in Tron Theatre Company's 35th year and after a brilliant spring-summer season, they're delighted to announce their programme for the autumn.

BWW speaks to Richard Marsh about 2017 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show Todd and God.

Steven Atkinson, Artistic Director of HighTide Theatre has today announced the company's plans for 2017. The Suffolk festival, which celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2016, is set to continue its winning formula of finding, nurturing and showcasing the country's best new playwrights at its home in Aldeburgh this September.

The birth-place of Punk in London and a home of radical theatre, the Roundhouse is now using spoken word and gig theatre to tackle political issues from the importance of clubbing to the capital's culture, issues of immigration, mental health and post-truth politics.

As the world tries to adjust to its new order and the new reality of post-fake-truth-news politics, Soho Theatre's spring and summer programme offers some hope for young hearts and old souls. The seasons include the premiere of the 2015 Verity Bargate Award winning Roller Diner - a savage-sweet rock'n'roll tragicomedy by first time playwright Stephen Jackson, and Touch - the fourth exciting new collaboration between Soho Theatre and DryWrite. 

Gary Naylor sees an award-winning show get a deserved transfer to the West End where it bubbles with laughs and some hard edged observations of how we live today.

Following a highly acclaimed UK tour and New York run, Fringe First Award winning Dirty Great Love Story makes its anticipated West End debut, in a new production, at the Arts Theatre in 2017.

Following the success of last year's THE LAST WORD festival, the Roundhouse announces a thrilling programme for its third season, presenting the best of spoken word, storytelling and live performance, from Tuesday 24 May - Saturday 18 June.
