Chewing Gum Dreams

“Standing once as a beacon of what was to come for Michaela Coel, the show now stands as proof of her undeniable legacy, as well as a breathtaking showcase for another up-and-comer in Lauryn Ajufo's finely-tuned performance.”

The Children

“The Children is thought-provoking, but the pace limits some of the character development, leaving me with more unanswered questions than answers, which at times distracts from the bigger message at the heart of this play.”

The Car Man

“Directed by a master of his craft who seems poised to continue moving from strength to strength, this immaculate remounting is truly not to be missed.”

“Sadly, the slow reveal of the characters and their motivations takes too long to develop, making it difficult to invest in them and their predicament.”

Sting
97

“Beautifully written, brilliantly performed and directed with real confidence, Sting is another triumph for the Young Vic.”

Lost Atoms

“Lost Atoms shows that the company have as much to offer the theatre 30 years on as they did as a fledgling student group.”

Safe Haven

“Ultimately, it cannot go unfelt that there is an element of the ‘white saviour’ trope that sits uncomfortably in the driver’s seat.”

Indian Ink

“While the loss of Tom Stoppard is still fresh in the hearts and minds of fans and theatregoers, this new production at Hampstead Theatre shows that his ideas are still universal, his themes still prescient, and his work still able to evoke genuine emotion in an audience.”

The Harder They Come

“By their official opening, the team had crafted something so vivid, so extraordinary, and so alive with kinetic energy and clarity of vision, that it was as if I was seeing every scene, hearing every song, for the first time all over again.”
