Is this a great time to tell stories, shedding light in dark times? Or is it an impossible task? That's the loose premise of Annie Baker's wilfully elusive new piece, featuring the brainstorming session from hell a?' or possibly about hell, or in hell. Immaculately directed by Baker herself and designer Chloe Lamford, it's monstrously clever: a philosophical Fright Night.
Is playwright Cat Miller in possession of an oversized blender? For her play The Hope Hypothesis, she tosses in Alice in Wonderland, a Kafkaesque tale, absurdist comedy, a spy thriller, soap opera histrionics and a deep state government mystery all together. She turns the dial to frappe because that's the most fun setting. Out pours a surprisingly refreshing and very delicious treat which successfully manages to be equally dark and light.

In a move to address the lack of British Muslim stories seen on UK stages, east London's Stratford Circus Arts Centre and Bradford's Kala Sangam Arts Centre are to offer seed funding to theatre companies. Artists and companies were invited to apply for funding to create new family shows that celebrate British Muslim experiences, culture and communities. As part of the initial phase, three theatre companies have been selected to receive £2000, free rehearsal space and the opportunity to pitch to the Theatre for Young Audiences Consortium in November. From these, one company will then be offered the opportunity to take their idea to full production and will premiere in London or Bradford in October 2020.

Having never seen a Mischief Theatre show before, it's safe to say I was very excited to attend the premiere of their new piece last night. You might recognise their work from the highly acclaimed, critical hits The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About A Bank Robbery. The pair have been playing on the West End for quite some years and I predict Groan Ups may also become a permanent fixture to the district's programming.
