Review: MINECRAFT EXPERIENCE: VILLAGER RESCUE, Corner Corner
by Kat Mokrynski - April 08, 2025

The show is in a new venue that has been built in Canada Water, Corner Corner, which has replaced part of the Surrey Quays shopping venue. The experience as a whole lasts about 45 minutes as audience members team up with the other people in their entry time and go through seven different rooms, led by the Orb of Interaction that they receive before entering the experience, a glowing cube that vibrates, lights up and changes colour depending on where the audience member is during the experience.

Review: CONTAINER, New Diorama Theatre
by Franco Milazzo - April 07, 2025
Unlike the object it is named after, Container studiously avoids fripperies like classical forms and categorisation. With nods to immigration, social media, California fires and the ongoing deluge of news from every angle, this is a work that merrily crosses thematic boundaries like a jaywalker after a fun night out.

Review: PUPPY, King's Head Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - April 05, 2025
Following The Audiovisual Media Services Regulation 2014, several acts were banned from explicit content filmed in the United Kingdom. This was done under the radar in a legislative change that resulted in a face-sitting protest in Westminster. The “face-sitters” protested that this bill was, in essence, sexual censorship, an interference in the private lives of an entire nation (the regulations were reviewed in 2019 after a review of obscenity laws). Naomi Westerman takes the incident and makes it the climax of her play. Jaz and Maya fall in love when Jaz joins Maya’s regular dogging group.
