Review: GAME OF THRONES: THE MAD KING, Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford Upon Avon

by Clementine Scott · August 9, 2026

Review: ARIADNE AUF NAXOS, Glyndebourne Festival

by Aliya Al-Hassan · July 20, 2026

Richard Strauss's opera within an opera, Ariadne aux Naxos, is a curious beast: a hybrid of spoken word and singing, a mix of musical influences and themes which ask whether high art can ever mix with popular entertainment. Two rival musical companies – a burlesque group and a serious opera compan…
