Director Neil Marshall’s latest horror takes us to England, 1665. After losing her husband to the great plague, Grace (Charlotte Kirk, who also co-writes), is unjustly accused of being a witch. Placed in the custody of the country’s most ruthless witch hunter, Judge Moorcroft (Sean Pertwee), she is forced to endure physical and emotional torture. […]

Of the 179 queens who have sashayed their way across the 13 seasons of runaway hit Ru Paul’s Drag Race, the inimitable, tongue-popping Alyssa Edwards is one of the most matchless and memorable. The fan favourite on season five (as well as the second series of All Stars) might not have claimed the crown, but […]

Only a chair features on an otherwise empty stage. On the chair sits Liam (Theo Hristov, who also wrote the monologue); he is an actor who, fuelled by drug and alcohol abuse, has experienced a public meltdown while performing in a West End play. For 60 minutes in the suitably intimate (and thankfully well air-conditioned) […]

Buckle up for Will Jackson’s Clutch – a feel good one-hour ride centring on driving instructor Max (Geoffrey Aymer) and learner Tyler (Charlie Kafflynn). While the audience are confined to the intimate studio space at the Bush, the two characters are largely restricted to the front seats of a Vauxha…

Even in this age of acceptance, awareness and inclusion, men still struggle to vocalise their feelings when it comes to mental health. There is still the misguided mindset of what it is to “be a man” and an embedded belief that to be anxious or depressed is weak. The pertinent issue of male mental health […]

Smoke consumes the entire auditorium of the Young Vic as loud jazz reverberates. It makes us feel slightly unsettled and on edge as we enter, but this is a Pinter play after all and one of the writer’s most revered at that. The last London revival was in 2015 at Trafalgar Studios under the helm […]

Pulitzer Prize winner Annie Baker is no stranger to the National Theatre. The American playwright has seen her works The Antipodes, John and The Flick all performed at the venue to great acclaim. Now she brings Infinite Life to the relatively intimate Dorfman space. It’s a co-production with the Atlantic Theater Company in New York, […]

The Unfriend makes its return to London following initial success at Chichester and a run at the Criterion. Mark Gatiss directs with a script by his frequent collaborator Steven Moffat. The two have a wealth of impressive television credits to their names, including co-creating the hit Sherlock. Gatiss is also known as a member of […]

Cockfosters, the tube station with a name to make even the most prudish among us smirk, powers into the Turbine Theatre. The space forms part of the Battersea Power Station redevelopment and holds a 94-seat capacity. This intimate setting combined with the fact it sits within railway arches could not be better suited to a […]

Samuel Beckett’s 1958 play Krapp’s Last Tape is currently enjoying simultaneous revivals. While Gary Oldman treads the boards up in York, the Irish actor Stephen Rea brings his take on the role to London’s Barbican. This follows runs in Ireland and Australia. The actor teams up with former Royal Court Artistic Director Vicky Featherstone to […]
