BWW Review: THE MUTANT MAN, The Space Arts Centre
The Mutant Man is a fractured, multi-layered telling of a true story of a man who was born as a woman and how his treatment at the hands of an exploitative, unenlightened society led to tragedy.
BWW Review: DRACULA: THE BLOODY TRUTH , Exeter Northcott Theatre
Exeter based Le Navet Bete have teamed up with the Exeter Northcott Theatre to present a unique play about the world's most famous vampire.
BWW Review: CHESS, Festival Theatre, Edinburgh
The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland's latest ambitious venture is a visually stunning production of Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Tim Rice's hit 1980s pop musical.
BWW Review: NATIVES, Southwark Playhouse
Premiering in the United Kingdom at Southwark Playhouse, Glenn Waldron's Natives is a brilliant view onto what it means to grow up as a millennial, and it shows the perils precluded to anyone who isn't one.
BWW Review: INCIDENT AT VICHY, Finborough Theatre
Directed by Phil Willmott on the ever-changing Finborough Theatre's stage, Incident At Vichy is impactful and thought provoking.
BWW Review: WONDERLAND, Grand Opera House, Belfast
In a contemporary re-imagining of the classic Lewis Carrol tale, Wonderland is Frank Wildhorn's new musical, currently touring venues around the UK until August.
BWW Review: GABRIEL, Richmond Theatre
In a plot more than a little reminiscent of Daphne du Maurier, Gabriel sees Jeanne Becquet is trying to keep her young daughter and Jewish daughter-in-law safe under the ever-increasing threat of the Nazis in German-occupied Guernsey in 1943.
BWW #TBT CD Review: THE BODYGUARD – THE MUSICAL (World Premiere Cast Recording) May Become Your New Guilty Pleasure
To call THE BODYGAURD - THE MUSICAL good would be kind.
BWW Review: THE LIFE, Southwark Playouse
The Life is the story of two women living in New York in the 70s, one keen to get out of the sex workers' life, the other keen to get on, told through wonderful songs, beautifully sung.
BWW Review: THE WIPERS TIMES, Arts Theatre
The Wipers Times tells the story of an underground magazine, written on the Western Front by soldiers for soldiers, the articles packed with good humour and a touch of irreverence.
BWW Review: A PASSIONATE WOMAN, Exeter Northcott
The complexities of the mother and son relationship are not easy to depict.
BWW Review: KICKED IN THE SH*TTER, The Hope Theatre
Leon Fleming tackles mental issues, family, poverty, struggle, and hope in his new play Kicked in the Sh*tter.
BWW Review: ONE LOVE, Birmingham Repertory Theatre
Birmingham Repertory Theatre presents the world premiere production of One Love: The Bob Marley Musical.
BWW Review: RUDDYGORE, King's Theatre, Edinburgh
The Edinburgh Gilbert & Sullivan Society's latest venture combines sparkling performances, modern references and excellent sound design in one of G&S's less well known comic operas.
BWW Review: DARK VANILLA JUNGLE, Theatre N16
Philip Ridley's dystopian nightmare has moments of poetry and humour but is ultimately just too relentlessly grim and must be endured rather than enjoyed.
BWW Review: FUNNY GIRL, Bristol Hippodrome
'I'm the greatest star, I am by far, but no one knows it' is the claim by aspiring vaudeville music show actress Fanny Brice at the top of Funny Girl.
BWW Review: DOG ENDS, Tabard Theatre
Last seen in 1984 as BBC's Play for Today, Dog Ends establishes a scenario familiar to many; George is growing weary of looking after his frail elderly father and his beloved dog.
BWW Review: AN AMERICAN IN PARIS, Dominion Theatre
It's 1945, and Paris is shakily emerging from Nazi occupation - celebrating, yes, with soldiers returning and families reuniting, but also confronting collaborators in their midst and post-war deprivation.
BWW Review: I CAPULETI E I MONTECCHI, The Vaults
Pop-up Opera are back with a new take on Vincenzo Bellini's I Capuleti e i Montecchi.
BWW Review: LOVE IN IDLENESS, Menier Chocolate Factory
In 1944, Terence Rattigan substantially revised Less Than Kind at the behest of star theatrical couple the Lunts; the result was the less political, more overtly comic Love in Idleness.
BWW Review: RACHEL TUCKER, Live at Zédel
Counting credits including We Will Rock You, Wicked, and The Last Ship, Rachel Tucker shows off her vocal range brilliantly, but she is ultimately underwhelming at her limited intimate solo shows at Zedel, giving the impression that a lot more could have been done production-wise.
BWW Review: MY BRILLIANT FRIEND PARTS 1 & 2, Rose Theatre
Naples is brought to London, as we track the extraordinary lives of Lila and Lenu in an adaptation of Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels that overreaches itself.
BWW Review: SHIRLEY VALENTINE, Richmond Theatre
There are few male playwrights who have captured the female psyche as well as Willy Russell.
