Review: HOLY FOOL, Park Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Sep 4, 2026

Rosalind Adler and Lea Sellers tackle the artistic consequences of tyranny in this sluggish, derivative, and uninteresting piece of theatre. Taking Dmitri Shostakovich’s relationship with Stalin’s regime as their protagonist, they try to weave a thought-provoking exploration of creativity and politics, but neglect to actually dive into what made this man intellectually appealing. Active in Petersburg at the height of Socialism, he toed the line between compliance and resistance, composing music in defiance of a system he could never believe in. Politically, psychologically, and morally, the topic is absolutely fascinating. The reality of Holy Fool is that this is a boring play, both dramatically and conceptually.

Review: LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST & MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, Orange Tree on the Hill
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Aug 10, 2026

There has long been discussion that Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost and Much Ado About Nothing may have been intended to be connected in some way. Love's Labour's Lost  ends abruptly with no conclusion to the promises of rekindling love connections and Much Ado About Nothing never explains the incredibly fractious relationship between Benedick and Beatrice. Christopher Luscombe paired the two plays back in 2015 at the RSC and now director Tom Littler stitches both plays together in gorgeous al fresco productions, as the Orange Tree theatre continues its renovation.

BWW Review: THE NIGHT WATCH, Richmond Theatre
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Nov 6, 2019

Where would theatre be without literary adaptations? From The Woman in Black to Matilda The Musical, some of the best shows originate from books. At first glance, Sarah Waters' fourth novel, the 2006 hit The Night Watch, is ripe for adaptation for the stage. A tale of love and desire set during and after World War Two, it follows the stories of four Londoners in reverse. They manage to survive The Blitz, but are forever-changed by their experiences.

Guest Blog: Actress Mara Allen On The UK Tour of THE NIGHT WATCH
by Marianka Swain - Sep 21, 2019

Coming out of RADA was both bitter and sweet, since I enjoyed my time there so much, but knowing I'd landed a role in the The Night Watch as soon as I graduated was a fantastic feeling! Being part of a touring production has definitely kept me on my toes, due to the changing venues and show times, which is great because it's improved my adaptability and stamina as an actor. Especially with a show like The Night Watch, which is a play that constantly has scenes bleeding into each other
