When aiming to tap into the collective imagination of an audience, fairy tales are always a fantastic place to start. These stories are baked into our collective consciousness from childhood and the reimagining and reinterpretation of them often gives life to evocative work, as a result of this collective understanding. The Vaults, ever home to the experimental, inventive and out there within the theatrical spectrum, is our venue for this evening as we prepare to enter Shotgun Carousel’s Red … [Read more...]

80 Days: A Real World Adventure | Review
Interactive, immersive and promenade. Three words that when individually placed in front of the word theatre get me excited. However, if you add all three, then it's time for something unique, and this was certainly true with Fire Hazard Games Underbelly production 80 Days - A Real World Adventure.

Then, the day before we were due to … [Read more...]
SPY CITY written by Bertie Watkins | Colab Theatre

An evening spent in the company of a gang of ruthless Victorian cutpurses - what could possibly be better? Sarcasm aside, the answer is - not much. For Flabbergast Theatre’s immersive production of The Swell Mob is so much more than just a play about pick-pockets. To begin with, when they say immersive, they really mean it. This isn’t one of those productions where the company get members of the audience to hold props for them, or shout out suggestions. No, from the minute you step over the … [Read more...]
Night Of The Living Dead Live! at The Pleasance Theatre
As a huge, huge fan of George R Romero’s work and with his sad passing in 2017 (without coming back in the style of his creations, disappointingly), I was excited to see a theatrical adaption of the ground-breaking film Night of the Living Dead advertised at the Pleasance Theatre. As a fan (huge, huge as described earlier), I wasn’t sure how the film would work on ‘the boards’ and while I could see that as a two-setting piece it would work better than many of Romero’s other works, I was … [Read more...]
