BWW Review: CINDERELLA, Gillian Lynne Theatre
Theatre has endured a truly torrid time during the pandemic, with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cinderella delayed for a year and last month’s opening night called off at the last minute.
BWW Review: JERSEY BOYS, Trafalgar Theatre
It’s been over four years since jukebox musical Jersey Boys was in the West End.
BWW Review: PROM 17: VIKINGUR ÓLAFSSON, Royal Albert Hall
Tightly-buttoned Bach met a bombastic Shostakovich in this demonstration of four radically different works that came across as either under- or expressly overstated.
BWW Review: CONSTELLATIONS, Vaudeville Theatre
For much of the last 18 months, we've thought 'What would I be doing now - if only I could?' Things don't always turn out that way though, as Nick Payne's warm, funny and poignant play shows.
BWW Review: SLOW DEATH OF A LOTUS FLOWER, Etcetera Theatre
The pandemic - and perhaps Brexit - threw a spanner in the works of the steady ascent of smaller-scale European theatre in London.
BWW Review: CABARET ALL STARS FT. BILL BAILEY, Proud Embankment
Proud Embankment's Cabaret All Stars is back with a bang for another season of some the best burlesque, cabaret and circus acts in London at the moment.
BWW Review: 2:22 - A GHOST STORY, Noel Coward Theatre
“Perception is a choice!” Sam concludes in his pedantic and condescending tirade about ghosts and “the unexplainable”.
BWW Review: PARADISE, National Theatre
State of the nation stuff at the National Theatre.
BWW Review: TIER THREE SISTERS, The Hope Theatre
What would happen if the Prozorovs were a modern family in lockdown? What if they had to move to a small rural town not because of their father’s army job, but because of the pandemic? What if Irina worked in Greggs?
BWW Review: THE WINDSORS: ENDGAME, Prince Of Wales Theatre
If you think it’s too soon for jokes surrounding Prince Andrew’s sex abuse allegations or the Meghan and Kate wedding feud, it’s probably best you don’t see this show.
BWW Review: CAROUSEL, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre
During the first three weeks of the initial lockdown in 2020, 16 women and children were murdered in the United Kingdom because of domestic violence.
BWW Review: THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE, Opera Holland Park
Opera Holland Park offers a variety of dishes to hungry audiences throughout the season.
BWW Review: DOMITIUS, Conway Hall
“Do you think I care for the souls of the poor?” It’s something that could come straight from a private conversation in Downing Street, but on this occasion it dates back to the first century in Domitius, a brand new musical about the fifth emperor of Rome: Nero.
BWW Review: SINGIN' IN THE RAIN, Sadler's Wells
The two main supporting roles steal the show, along with the spectacular set-piece choreography.
BWW Review: SISTERS OF CHARITY, Lion & Unicorn Theatre
Ireland, 1922.
BWW Review: ARTHUR/MERLIN, Actors' Church
Iris Theatre's take on the Arthurian legend benefits from a beautiful setting and an engaging cast to close out their Summer Festival.
BWW Review: TWELFTH NIGHT, Shakespeare's Globe
The Globe’s Artistic Director Michelle Terry has not had the easiest start to her tenure.
BWW Review: IF WE ENDED THIS, Camden People's Theatre
There’s a level of narcissism that pervades every relationship we build.
BWW Review: ANYTHING GOES, Barbican
It’s the outward sigh and unexpected pause of two-time Tony winner Sutton Foster as she makes her first entrance onto the Barbican stage – to great applause and cheers we should add – that travels through your body like the greatest sense of relief: theatre is back.
BWW Review: VAN GOGH: THE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE, The Old Stable Yard
Vincent Van Gogh's is one of those life stories that we love to retell.
BWW Review: I COULD USE A DRINK, Garrick Theatre
Sometimes theatre shows don’t work out.
BWW Review: WONDERVILLE, Palace Theatre
Wonderville's varied cast of magicians and illusionists keep the pace high in a rip-roaring family show that provokes delight and, yes, wonder.
BWW Review: THE ODYSSEY, Jermyn Street Theatre
“So much pain was filled with happiness, at last!” There’s a reason why we call a lengthy, adverse journey “an odyssey”.
BWW Review: THE CUNNING LITTLE VIXEN, Opera Holland Park
Urban dwellers know that a fox swaggering the streets like she owns them is nothing unusual these days.
