Review: ‘NIGHT, MOTHER at Hampstead Theatre
By Stuart King Wednesday, November 10 2021, 08:52
Our scene takes place in a rural American homestead where, as a prelude to shooting herself, Jessie lists for her mother the humdrum minutiae of her existence — whilst preparing pill bottles, filling labelled sweet jars, detailing who to call when the dishwasher breaks down and most importantly, what procedure to follow after she hears the gun shot later that evening.

Review: SIX at the Vaudeville Theatre
By Stuart King Tuesday, November 9 2021, 20:29

It's difficult to do justice to the impressive multi-layered talents deployed in bringing this show to life. The performances, design and puppetry combine to envelop the entire theatre in a compelling mysticism which captivates anyone fortunate enough to see the production.

Review: THE SHARK IS BROKEN at the Ambassadors Theatre
By Stuart King Thursday, October 14 2021, 09:24
The Shark is Broken seems an unlikely title for a West End play, but context is everything in Ian Shaw and Joseph Nixon's exposé of the notorious 1974 Cape Cod shooting schedule for Spielberg's blockbuster Jaws.
