Review: THE CREAKERS, Southbank Centre
by Christiana Rose - December 30, 2024
Based on Tom Fletcher’s best-selling children’s book and adapted by scriptwriter Miranda Larson, The Creakers musical is an escapade which highlights the very real need for sustainability, through a tale about Lucy and the ‘kidderlings’ of Whiffington. The children wake up to find that all of the adults have mysteriously disappeared and the local waste and recycling issues have oddly all but vanished too.

Guest Blog: 'The Play is Preoccupied With Uniformity and Assimilation': Writer Saana Sze on Their New Work BELLY OF THE BEAST
by Guest Author - December 27, 2024
I started thinking about what would become Belly of the Beast in 2019. The year had seen protests, by parents, outside schools which had proposed teaching an inclusive curriculum.
