Review: THE RESISTIBLE RISE OF ARTURO UI, starring Mark Gatiss


by Cindy Marcolina - April 26, 2026

A corrupt lot steeped in scandal puppeteers the economy. Unreasonable taxes are plaguing the people. Violence is rampant. All the while, a megalomaniac is gaining more traction by the day.

Review: DEATH ON THE NILE, Theatre Royal Brighton


by Caroline Cronin - April 01, 2026

Agatha Christie’s Death on the Nile—here adapted by Ken Ludwig and directed by Lucy Bailey—arrives on stage with all the glamour and menace you’d hope for: a sun-soaked cruise, a clutch of suspiciously well-dressed passengers, and, inevitably, a murder that sends everything spiralling....

Review: HENRY V, Royal Shakespeare Theatre


by Cindy Marcolina - March 29, 2026
