In the programme notes of EUGENIUS, Andrew Lloyd Webber states that he wants The Other Palace to be a ‘space where writers and producers can try out and refine their work’. By taking away the need for big sets and automation, the focus can be on ‘the writing of the show itself’. EUGENIUS seems the perfect example of this ethos. After a rather confusing and troubled workshop in 2016, Ben Adams and Chris Wilkins have taken the time to crystalise their vision and clarify the story of this quirky American 80’s Geek-fest.

Review: COLLECTIVE RAGE: A PLAY IN FIVE BETTIES at Southwark Playhouse
By Justin Murray Friday, February 2 2018, 11:24

‘A universal tale affirming human dignity' may seem strange billing for a play about one of the wealthiest banking families in history, but that’s what Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick create in Rothschild and Sons.


Review: BEGINNING at the Ambassadors Theatre
By Nicky Allpress Monday, January 29 2018, 15:00
It’s a rare treat to care so much about characters in a play. Watching Beginning in its transfer to Ambassadors Theatre was just such treat and it’s as much about the two utterly engaging performances as it is David Eldridge’s tender writing.

Review: THE TWILIGHT ZONE at the Almeida Theatre
By Nicky Allpress Monday, January 29 2018, 12:51
In a B-movie style fantasy, Anne Washburn’s The Twilight Zone is futuristic retro fun. Twisted somewhere between sci-fi and spoof, this darkly stylish fantasy pays loving tribute to American pop culture.
