Review: DAN AND PHIL: TERRIBLE INFLUENCE, London Palladium
by Kat Mokrynski - January 27, 2025
There are two kinds of people in this world - those who are aware of the significance of lions and llamas and those who are not. Those who have inhaled Sharpie fumes putting cat whiskers on their faces and those who have not. Those who know who Dan and Phil are and those who do not. With three sold-out nights at the London Palladium, one can be certain that the duo have a strong fan base in London.

Review: SANTI & NAZ, Soho Theatre
by Niamh Jones - January 27, 2025

Review: AN INTERROGATION, Hampstead Theatre
by Katie Kirkpatrick - January 26, 2025
One room, two people. A murder case, as yet unsolved. Jamie Armitage’s An Interrogation takes a simple premise and layers it with questions of gender, class, and responsibility.

Review: AMY ANNETTE: THICK SKIN, Soho Theatre
by Christiana Rose - January 24, 2025
In a glorious assault on the image obsessed and therefore resulting trauma of the Noughties, Amy Annette’s ‘Thick Skin’ Debut UK Tour opened at The Soho Theatre to a sell-out audience. Through familiar nostalgia, the mesmerising image of a Nokia 6110 model consumed the background, a game of ‘Snake’ present with a clever twist.

Review: ONE MAN MUSICAL, Underbelly Boulevard
by Franco Milazzo - January 24, 2025
If sacred cows make the best burgers, Underbelly Soho could soon become the most popular fast food joint around. One Man Musical’s latest outing is quickly becoming something of a word-of-mouth must-see and, while the marketing is understandably coy about who the “one man” is, it becomes clear early on that cabaret duo Flo & Joan have come not to praise Andrew Lloyd Webber but to hilariously bury him in his own faintly ridiculous history.
