Review: DEAD HARD, COLAB Tower
by Franco Milazzo - December 14, 2024
If there was an award for the most art forms smooshed into one show, COLAB’s Dead Hard could be a winner. This blend of panto, comedy, immersive and drag is a satisfying mess that somehow (just) works.

Review: FLAMINGO, The Hope Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - December 13, 2024
“Oh, that I were a man!” In the opening scene, one might worry that they have accidentally stumbled into a one-woman production of Much Ado About Nothing, as the woman on stage gives a passionate rendition of one of Beatrice’s iconic monologues. However, this quickly changes when another woman accidentally crashes the audition, leading to a fateful meeting that will change the paths of these two women forever.

Review: OLGA KOCH COMES FROM MONEY, Soho Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - December 12, 2024
Do you relate to the problem of being bullied in state school for being rich and then being bullied in private school for not being rich enough? Then this might be the show for you. Olga Koch Comes From Money is an hour of stand-up in which Koch explores her own relationship with wealth in a show that is formatted like a Q&A, answering the questions the audience might want to know. How did Koch’s family get wealthy? What’s it like being rich? Did you really write this show poolside on Uncle Jeffrey’s island?

Review: THE LITTLE FOXES, Young Vic
by Alexander Cohen - December 12, 2024
We love watching a rich family crumble on stage. From Oedipus and his mother to Chekhov’s families fractured by existential angst, to Ibsen’s split by socio-politics paradigm shifts. The Hubbards, the family of former plantation owners in Lilian Hellman’s The Little Foxes, could be the spiritual successor of them all

Review: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, Richmond Theatre
by Aliya Al-Hassan - December 12, 2024
There’s a little bit of magic occurring on Richmond Green this festive season.
