Review: CHATHAM HOUSE RULES, Pleasance London
by Kat Mokrynski - November 13, 2023

Review: MATES IN CHELSEA, Royal Court
by Aliya Al-Hassan - November 10, 2023
burbThe Royal Court was the first stage for Lucy Wade’s biting satire Posh, which focused on the lack of consequences of the poor and entitled behaviour of certain members of the upper classes. That was back in 2010 and it can be argued that amount of material to work with on the subject is even greater that ever. Unfortunately, Rory Mullarkey’s new play wastes every opportunity to say anything novel.
