Review: GIANT STEPS, Soho Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - July 10, 2025
Giant Steps is an hour-long improvisational show with a bit of a twist - it’s not just the comedians who are improvising! Along with the four performers, there is also a live jazz band on stage, improvising along with the actors based on suggestions from the audience.

Review: HERSH DAGMARR: INDEFINITE LEAVE TO REMAIN, Crazy Coqs
by Franco Milazzo - July 10, 2025
With Indefinite Leave To Remain, the singular Hersh Dagmarr lifts and shifts the hits of The Pet Shop Boys into a cabaret setting. It is a curious creature of an evening: part musical theatre, part confessional, and lashings of his rambling yet magnetic dialogue. 
Review: 'TILL THE STARS COME DOWN, Theatre Royal Haymarket
by Aliya Al-Hassan - July 10, 2025
There are productions that herald huge amounts of fanfare and and others that creep up and surprise you. Beth Steel's wonderfully human play, 'Till the Stars Come Down, is the latter. A surprise hit at the National Theatre last year, this sharply comic and deeply touching family drama now makes its deserved West End transfer.
Review: GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY, The Old Vic
by Alexander Cohen - July 10, 2025
It’s hard to shake the suspicion that this revival of Conor McPherson’s Girl From the North Country is hitching a ride on the gravy train of A Complete Unknown. Forged with songs from Bob Dylan’s back catalogue, it feels less like living, breathing musical theatre that burrows into the heart, and more like a canny cash cow that fresh legions of Dylan disciples are ready to mumble along to.

Review: NOUGHTS & CROSSES, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre
by Katie Kirkpatrick - July 09, 2025
Malorie Blackman’s Noughts & Crosses has long been something of a YA classic. Rather than dreaming up a sci-fi future, however, this story presents instead an uncanny alternate present – one where discrimination and racial violence are worse than ever, but it's Black people who are the privileged ones.

Review: 35MM: A MUSICAL EXHIBITION, Phoenix Arts Club
by Clementine Scott - July 08, 2025
“Who cares what happened after?” This is the question posed by song cycle 35MM, which takes its structure from a series of photographs, each projected onto the back wall, and giving us a musical insight into a single moment, where nothing beforehand or afterwards matters – a breakup, the tender beginnings of romance, or on one occasion a parent wrangling their Satanic baby.
