Review: SINEMATIC, Emerald Theatre


by Franco Milazzo - February 27, 2026

It appears Tosca Rivola is back for a sequel of sorts.

by Clementine Scott - February 26, 2026

Review: EVENING ALL AFTERNOON, Donmar Warehouse


by Cindy Marcolina - February 25, 2026

“What a thing to have a mother!” That’s how Anna Ziegler’s new play ends. Studies show that it takes two to five years for a blended family to become a cohesive unit, and when Jennifer marries John, his daughter Delilah refuses to cooperate. Jennifer badly wants to be in Delilah’s life. In...

Review: BIRD GROVE, Hampstead Theatre


by Clementine Scott - February 24, 2026
