Review: HORSE-PLAY at Riverside Studios
by Cheryl Markosky
- Sep 2, 2022
What did our critic think of HORSE-PLAY at Riverside Studios? Well, you could stick to bland Date Night ideas, like going to the cinema or a gastropub meal for two. Or you could be more daring, like Tom and Tim. After a decade of marriage, the married gay couple decide to spend an evening with a hunky male escort in a sex dungeon. What could possibly go wrong?
Review: HORIZONS - A 21ST CENTURY SPACE ODYSSEY, O2 Arena
by Debbie Gilpin
- Sep 1, 2022
A few years ago, the concept of a scientist selling out arenas across the world simply wouldn’t compute, but the Professor Brian Cox Effect continues to work its magic. He and Robin Ince are back with a brand new tour that seeks to answer the following question: “What does it mean to live a small, finite life in an infinite, eternal Universe?” Over the course of a couple of hours, the audience is taken on a whistlestop tour of cutting-edge physics, exploring the observable universe and attempting to make sense of black holes with the assistance of a stunning array of images.

MR. YUNIOSHI Comes To FreeFall Next Month
by Stephi Wild
- Aug 30, 2022
In Mr. Yunioshi, J. Elijah Cho cleverly explores Mickey Rooney's infamous performance as Mr. Yunioshi in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's,' often pointed to as the most egregious example of yellowface in the movies. Rooney's 'over the top' characterization is cringeworthy to watch to this day, but it also raises several questions: Should actors have the opportunity to play ANY role? Could there ever have been a 'right' way to play it? And what compels an actor to play a character that they really shouldn't be playing? Asian-American writer/performer J. Elijah Cho attempts to explore these topics and more in this poignant and funny satire.
