Miss Atomic Bomb is glamorous, funny and thoroughly wicked. Ignore the doom merchants, of which there have been plenty. The night after the press night, which I couldn't make and seems to have gone badly, the show was firing on all cylinders.

Review: AKHNATEN at English National Opera

Review: THE CAUSE at Jermyn Street Theatre

Unbeknownst to each other two terrorist groups set out to assassinate him on that fateful day. One was organised by experienced Serbian militia but manned by incompetent students, the other incongruously consisted of young artists from Hungary. Although perhaps not that incongruously because a failed art student led the Nazi’s into the Second World War fighting allied forces led by an amateur painter.
