Socrates And His Clouds Jermyn Street Theatre

June 7, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 6:30 pm By Genni Trickett

Socrates

Socrates And His Clouds by The Meddlers Theatre Company, Jermyn Street Theatre The playwright and philosophy teacher William Lyons has loosely based his new play upon Aristophanes’s Clouds. Inspired also by Plato’s Dialogues, he has given a new twist to the great man himself which alters both the interaction between the protagonists and the overall ambiance of the play. Rest assured, an in-depth knowledge of philosophy is not a pre-requisite to enjoy this performance; the writing is … [Read more...]

Phantom All Star Productions Ye Olde Rose and Crown Theatre

May 24, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 6:29 pm By Genni Trickett

Phantom

There is something breath-taking about being confronted by musical theatre at such close range, especially if the music is of the power and quality to be found in the All Star Productions performance of Maury Yeston and Arthur Kopit’s Phantom. The show was originally designed for Broadway with a £12 million budget in mind, and although it never actually made it there and is currently being performed in a small pub theatre in Walthamstow it still retains the glamour and slick professionalism of a … [Read more...]

Review of Blavatsky’s Tower – The Baron’s Court Theatre

May 16, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 6:26 pm By Ruth Gledhill

Tower

The intimate, subterranean space of Baron's Court Theatre could not more different from the 300-foot high Blavatsky's Tower. As the audience, we are almost on top of this cast of five exceptionally gifted actors. Yet the illusion of extraordinary elevation from the ground and total detachment from reality is maintained. Like the lesser mortals on the lower levels, we are the "crushed", stunned by the enormity of Blavatsky's visitation of his unearthly fantasy of moral and architectural … [Read more...]

Review of The Shepherd’s Chameleon

May 16, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 4:31 pm By Emma Slater

The Shepherd

Ionesco! Ionesco! Are you there? Ionesco! It’s happened to all of us. You’re trying to finish a piece of work: a script or spreadsheet, manifesto or manuscript. But your boss/colleague/significant other is peering over your shoulder, asking whether the work is finished. When can they see it? Have you thought about ‘x’, ‘y’ or ‘z’? Wouldn’t you be better doing it another way? While pressure to perform can be motivating, it can also be irritating, claustrophobic, stifling, and … [Read more...]

Review of Liza (On An E) Vaudeville Theatre

May 15, 2013 Last updated: May 7, 2019 10:58 pm By Genni Trickett

Liza

Liza Minnelli is a gift for caricaturists and mimicrists. Flamboyant, eccentric and fragile; it would be so easy to turn a drag impersonation of Liza into an extravaganza of savage bitchery and cruel comedy. Thankfully, in the expert, kind hands of Australian Trevor Ashley the lady is perfectly safe. That does not mean that the show is boring – far from it! We are treated to gossip, revelations and salacious innuendoes in abundance, but it is no more than Minnelli would – and frequently has – … [Read more...]

Circus Maximus at the Southbank Udderbelly

May 12, 2013 Last updated: May 9, 2019 12:21 am By Emma Slater

Udderbelly Circus

ROLL UP, ROLL UP!  With the popularity of X Factor, Dancing on Ice, Strictly, and Britain’s Got Talent, it was only a matter of time before a new contender stepped into the ring. But this act is no stranger to the arena. Ladies and gentlemen, the circus is in town! Circus Maximus is the UK’s first ever circus competition, bringing with it a wealth of new talent, exciting acts and breathtaking skills from some of the nation’s finest circus performers. Each evening, five artists take the stage, … [Read more...]

And In The End by Alexander Marshall Jermyn Street Theatre

May 10, 2013 Last updated: July 5, 2017 1:16 am By Alan Franks

John Lennon

In the midst of death we are in life. For the purposes of this evening, both belong to the late Beatle John Lennon. No sooner has he been cruelly dispatched to an early death in New York in 1980 by the crazed gunman Mark Chapman than he embarks on the story of his life. Where is this account coming from? Heaven or Hell? If you are a Lennon fan, which is not quite the same thing as being a Beatles fan, he and therefore we are in the first; if you find him dumb with drink or dull with rage, it is … [Read more...]

Musclebound – Assembly Roxy – Edinburgh Fringe

Rosy Carrick likes to touch herself. I very much doubt she would have an issue with me saying that – after all, she said she likes to touch herself at … [Read More...]

No Place Like Home at Pleasance Dome – Edinburgh Fringe

A rapid switch of Alex Roberts’ baseball cap from back to front, together with an appropriate change of pitch and accent, are all that is required for … [Read More...]

Tiger Lady – Pleasance Courtyard (Above) – Edinburgh Fringe

It’s a sad tale, as the audience is duly informed at the start of the show, but before it reaches the point of melancholy and woe, there are a lot of … [Read More...]

Foundations – Underbelly Cowgate – Edinburgh Fringe

Encounters with technology in everyday life are becoming increasingly common – I visited a branch of a chain of a fast-food restaurant recently and … [Read More...]

Lucy Porter: Wake-Up Call – Pleasance Courtyard

There is nothing in Lucy Porter’s show, or so Porter herself asserts, for the younger generation: it is all about her mid-life crisis and what she did … [Read More...]
