The Standard of Living at Theatre Royal Haymarket | Theatre review (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Even for those acquainted with the subject, the notion of macroeconomics as the foundation of theatrical drama is a tough sell. Playwright James Graham knows it, beginning his new play by having Rory Kinnear appear to address the crowd’s doubts directly. This subject matter may be daunting, but fear not, he tells the audience. The core of the school of thought he intends to go mainstream with ultimately aligns with a question anyone could resonate with: “What is it to live a good life?” The ques
Tartuffe (Remixed) at Marylebone Theatre | Theatre review (opens the original)

What is Pastor Terrance Blake thinking? Does he think at all? When the priest makes his arrival in the form of a buck-toothed Mark Rylance, his face contorted into a rictus grin of such aggressive cheer that one’s own facial muscles ache in sympathy, there seems to be little there at all. The occasion the pastor has been called upon to officiate is the wedding of Adanna (Sara Mokonen) – daughter of the wealthy, strictly traditionalist patriarch Oga (Usifu Jalloh) – to the considerably more laidb
Camden Fringe 2026: Caravan Tea Party at Etcetera Theatre | Theatre review (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A café in Nicaragua. A Zoom job interview. Or is it a therapy session? Or perhaps a mirror monologue with no real second party at all? Add a chatty, long-beaked hand puppet into the mix, and it makes for an ambitiously disorienting start to Lauren Derry’s debut outing as a writer, and the show confidently moves forward across terrain both surreal and understatedly dramatic. Though Derry has a co-star, playing the mysterious authority figure communicating over the net and in the flesh, directly a
Camden Fringe 2026: Downward Spiral – The Benji’s Mind Show at Libra Theatre Cafe | Theatre review (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Men will literally *INSERT HERE* instead of going to therapy. Or, in some cases, with therapy’s introspection (and potential counsel?) as their fuel, they may well extrapolate their neuroses into scripted form as a means of facing them. If so, then this Camden Fringe production stands as an especially provocative immersive deep dive into the contents of one creator’s own therapy sessions, with mixed results. As creator-star Felix Jakob Mangold arrives in character as a zany talk show host, he pr
Camden Fringe 2026: Off and On at Bridewell Theatre | Theatre review (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s in the appropriately groan-worthy bon mots. It’s in the breathless declarations roughly adjacent to “Well, what’s all this then?!” and “Why, I never in my entire life!”; the constant shifting of costume, accent, and gender. Right Track Theatre’s Off and On is a well-studied homage to classic farce, one that knows the moves and sets its game, energetically committed cast to the task of dancing them (or stumbling, pratfalling and mugging them, to be more exact). The result is impressively sli
