Guest Blog: 'It Burnt Itself Into My Memory': Director Laurence Boswell on Dostoevsky and THE DREAM OF A RIDICULOUS MAN
by Guest Author - March 19, 2024
Dostoevsky has always been my favourite novelist – he is the chronicler of the troubled mind. I first read The Dream of a Ridiculous Man when I was at university. It burnt itself into my memory. As I was on a walk during lockdown it came back to me – I reread it and it felt like it might have something to say to us – a tale of an individual in crisis in difficult times, and the pandemic felt difficult.

Review: INSTRUCTIONS FOR A TEENAGE ARMAGEDDON, Garrick Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - March 18, 2024
Girlhood comes to the Garrick. Rosie Day’s moving one-woman play Instructions for a Teenage Armageddon transfers to the West End helmed by Bridgerton’s Charithra Chandran. Filled to the brim with trigger warnings and imbued with the blunt honesty and pure emotion owned by young girls only, the piece fits perfectly within the recent industry shift towards pink feminism. Directed by Georgie Staight, it’s a heartbreaking depiction of teenage depression and a touching journey through grief and loss. Eileen is barely a teenager when her sister dies of complications from an eating disorder. Suddenly turned into the only child of a grieving couple, she convinces herself that it’s her fault Olive died. Her parents are wrapped up tight in their own pain and her friends disappear. Unable to address the elephant in the room, unsurprisingly, she falls in with a bad crowd.

Review: ROBBY HOFFMAN, Soho Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - March 18, 2024
Throughout the show, Hoffman returns to one phrase that keeps her going - “It could be worse.” She has a tendency to focus on the past, with one example being reenacting how someone invented dominoes out of pure boredom one day. But, even though everything could be worse, Hoffman brings up a range of topics that annoy her.
