Torn Apart is the story of three relationships, in three generations, in three beds. All of which have the sword of Damocles hanging overhead. We are invited to observe as these couples move from happy, sometimes orgasmic, bliss to much darker places. Along the way we discover the couples connections, which are not just situational. Sex is used as a visual representation of the dynamic of each relationship and this is incredibly effective.

The Last Tango is a fun, dynamic and delightful show that moves swiftly through the evening portraying a love story through life.

Review KENNY MORGAN at Arcola Theatre
By Kit Benjamin Tuesday, September 27 2016, 11:31
I can’t remember when I last saw anything by Terence Rattigan. I suppose I had mentally consigned his work to the world of am-dram and school plays and thought of it as old fashioned; a bit too comfortable, like a well-worn sofa. The restoration of interest in Rattigan in recent years had largely passed me by, and I didn’t catch the latest (well-received) revival of The Deep Blue Sea at The National. Which brings me to Kenny Morgan.


Review: THINGS I KNOW TO BE TRUE at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith
By Monty Leigh Tuesday, September 20 2016, 14:30
State Theatre Company and Frantic Assembly’s offering of Bovell’s THINGS I KNOW TO BE TRUE taps into our undying fascination with familial relationships, and the way in which they tackle it, taps into our hearts.
The story revolves around the Price family, whose naive youngest child Rosie (Kirsty Oswald) has just returned from her gap year around Europe. The family begins to unravel around her, and a tragic incident punctuates the day her ‘childhood ended.’


Review: The RSC's DR FAUSTUS at The Barbican Theatre
By Phil Willmott Tuesday, September 20 2016, 09:38
You can imagine how electrifying DR FAUSTUS must have been when it was first performed to a 16th century audience of Christians and indeed people who'd face persecution for atheism.
The oft imitated story concerns an academic who summons demons in a religious act of defiance and barters his soul in exchange for a life time of unlimited knowledge.
