REVIEW: GLITTER PUNCH (Kings Head Theatre) ★★
After its short run at the Lion & Unicorn Theatre, Lucy Burke’s ‘Glitter Punch’ a play that focuses on love, sex and the difference between the two makes a swift return to the Kings Head. The narrative focuses on the life of sixteen year old ‘Molly’ (Charlotte Salkind) who like any teenager yearns to escape […]
REVIEW: STRANGERS IN BETWEEN (Kings Head Theatre) ★★★★
Strangers In Between is enticing, inviting and impulsive and, at the same time, it has more laughs than almost anything else currently in the West End. It is grossly potty mouthed and, at times, over explicit, but oh so funny. It is something of a guilty pleasure and not something for children or your maiden […]
Coming of age tale GLITTER PUNCH comes to Kings Head Theatre
16 year old Molly wants to escape her dreary college existence, her over worked mother and alcoholic stepfather.

REVIEW: 2 BECOME 1 (Kings Head Theatre) ★★
2 Become 1: The 90s Pop Musical was created by Kerrie Thomason and Natasha Granger based on the music they grew up with. A love letter to 90’s girl power, the musical features music from All Saints, B*Witched, Shania Twain, Cher, Alanis Morissette, Britney Spears and The Spice Girls among others. Following a sell-out run […]
REVIEW: PINOCCHIO (Kings Head Theatre) ★★★★
Charles Court Opera, known for their innovative Gilbert & Sullivan productions, along with their more recent works The Magic Flute and The Barber of Seville, returns to the King’s Head Theatre with their 10th Boutique pantomime. Based on Collodi’s story of Pinocchio, with elements of Jack and the Beanstalk, this peppery panto, written and directed […]
ADAM & EVE … AND STEVE comes to King’s Head Theatre in 2017
“God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve” (1977, unknown) Adam & Eve… and Steve is a brand new five star musical farce set in a newly created paradise, the Garden of Eden. The basis of every love story, every romantic ballad, and every sentimental poem ever written is man meets woman, they disagree, […]
REVIEW: DRACULA (Kings Head Theatre) ★★★
“Dracula”, written by Daniel Hallissey and Danny Wainwright (who also directed this play) does not shy away from addressing all sorts of uncomfortable subjects: immigrants, women’s rights and gluten intolerance. In their slapstick approach to Bram Stoker’s classic, Count Dracula is a misunderstood Transylvanian gentleman on the search for his one true (British) love to […]
REVIEW: FIVE GUYS CHILLIN’ (Kings Head Theatre) ★★★★
FIVE GUYS CHILLIN’ at the Kings Head theatre, conjures up images of dancing, 1960’s singers in fluorescent silk suits, however when a bare bottom is presented to the audience within 30 seconds of the action beginning, it becomes evidently clear that it certainly isn’t that type of a show. This verbatim ode to Grindr (written and […]
REVIEW: POKER FACE (Kings Head Theatre) ★★★★
POKER FACE is a skilfully written and very funny play, set in Prague in 2011. The action all takes place in the apartment of Jana, a wealthy, hard headed, independent woman and her daughter Pavlina. The feeling is more Woody Allen Hollywood rather than cold European reality. It is literate, even in translated form. The story […]
