Blind / Doing The Buisness
I have never seen anything at The Courtyard Theatre Studio before and my first impressions were positive. Great space, nice atmosphere and not to far from the tube. One thing I will say is that the auditorium was freezing cold which wasn’t great. Our night kicked off with Doing The Business. A two […]
Faster-Higher-Stronger-Straighter
The faintly audible external hum of Queen’s ‘Under Pressure’ provides the perfect atmosphere for Damien Tracey’s latest work, unravelling from the Dominion Theatre’s Studio space, he shines a spotlight on the seething, fearful creature that is the Russian government. A clever mutation of the Olympics’ motto, Faster-Higher-Stronger-Straighter is a no-nonsense war cry of outrage that resounds with […]
No Way To Treat A Lady
The Landor Theatre in Clapham continues to prove itself one of the most interesting and vibrant of London’s fringe venues with this deliciously dark comedy thriller.

Pam Ann has Tea With Wilma

Cleopatra
Undoubtedly one of the most iconic women in history, Cleopatra is given new life in 2014 in Gareth Cadwallader’s playwriting debut.
