REVIEW: PARTY (Pleasance Theatre)
Tom Basden’s Party takes an entertaining look at Generation Y’s apathetic and vaguely disdainful opinion of modern politics. It’s an hour of repartee between four university students – Jones (Tom Scurr), Mel (Elizabeth Hope), Phoebe (Florence Hapgood) and Jared (George Vafakis) – and Duncan (Luke de Belder), a grown up with a real-life job. They […]

REVIEW: TORSTEN, THE BEAUTIFUL LIBERTINE (Above The Stag Theatre)
After a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2014, “Torsten, The Beautiful Libertine” now plays at the Above The Stag Theatre. Between two seedy alleyways, this theatre is a little LGBT sanctuary. I’ve never experienced a warmer welcome than at this venue, which is why it is a shame that the story of the […]

REVIEW: ALL YOUR WANTS AND NEEDS FULFILLED FOREVER (Vaults Festival)
Underneath Waterloo station, in a heavily graffitied tunnel, lies The Vaults. The otherworldly kooky location alone is worth a visit, and a perfect host to the modern, philosophical comedy “All Your Wants and Needs Fulfilled Forever” by the PlayGround Collective. The production is a mixture of “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”, “The Truman Show”, […]

REVIEW: NINA CONTI – IN YOUR FACE (Criterion Theatre)
I’m going to be honest with you. I think I’m the funniest person I have ever met. I always make myself laugh and I don’t care if other people don’t find me amusing because surely, so long as I’m having a good time, it shouldn’t affect anyone else? This is why I love stand up […]
