Review: CRUISE at Apollo Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue
By Stuart King Wednesday, August 17 2022, 22:08
CRUISE is based on Jack Holden’s personal experiences volunteering in his youth at the London Gay Switchboard Helpline during the 1980s — and he deploys a particularly effective device to segue the audience into that hedonistic lost realm. One clumsily-handled call catapults us to Soho during its heyday and a time in which the AIDS crisis has only just begun to creep into the wider consciousness.

Review: Tom, Dick & Harry at the Alexandra Palace
By Miriam Gibson Monday, August 8 2022, 11:31
“Gentlemen, if we pull this off it will be the greatest escape mankind has ever made”. Low stakes, then, in this enjoyable play depicting of the escape from Stalag Luft III Prisoner of War camp.
Tom, Dick & Harry begins in 1943, with a motley crew of captured airmen imprisoned in Stalag Luft camp in Nazi Germany. British pilots Ballard and Wings are the stereotypical posh-boy pilots seen in many stories about the RAF. But Tom, Dick & Harry also shines a light on airmen from across Europe, as well as Australia and the Caribbean. The band of heroes is winning, if broadly-drawn.

Review: ALL OF US at The Dorfman, National Theatre
By Stuart King Friday, August 5 2022, 09:36
There can be few taboo subjects which induce the level of instantaneously awkward and uncomfortable human interactions than confronting unexpected physical disability. In Ms Wobbly’s funny and moving play ALL OF US, the audience are let off lightly, for it is largely a joy and although painful in sections, ultimately enlightening and thought-provoking.
