    Red at the Wyndham’s Theatre review *****

    Red Wyndham’s Theatre, 21st June 2018 The original production of John Logan’s play Red at the Donmar Warehouse in 2009 with Alfred Molina and Eddie Redmayne passed me by. More fool me. So I was looking forward to catching this revival directed by Michael Grandage, (who directed the original), with…

    Monet and Architecture at the National Gallery review *****

    Monet and Architecture National Gallery, 14th June 2018 I am not the biggest fan of Monet’s later, post-Giverny work. Loved the actual garden, the white suits, the pipe, the spectacular beard, the repetition and the joy. But the colours make me queasy and the smudginess is disorientating. I know that…

    Beast film review *****

    Beast, 14th June 2018 I can be pretty certain I am going to thoroughly enjoy a film in a cinema. I can go when pretty much no-one else is there, to a showing near the end of a run, which satisfies my misanthropy and intolerance of distraction, and I can…

    Act and Terminal 3 at the Print Room Coronet review ***

    Act, Terminal 3 The Print Room, Coronet, 13th June 2018 Lars Noren is considered by many of those who purport to know about these things to be Sweden’s greatest living playwright. He certainly looks the part. His writing is oft compared to Beckett and Pinter. The Print Room is a…

    Leave Taking at the Bush Theatre review *****

    Leave Taking Bush Theatre, 13th June 2018 I confess I had never heard of Winsome Pinnock’s 1987 play Leave Taking until this season’s announcement for the Bush. Shocking for someone who considers themselves to be a theatre obsessive. I still have so much to learn. Still theatre is always the…

    The Two Noble Kinsman at the Globe Theatre review ****

    The Two Noble Kinsman Globe Theatre, 12th June 2018 I am not too keen on the Globe. Actually that is putting it mildly. I really don’t like it. For the simple reason that it is so bloody uncomfortable. I know that is the point. Sam Wanamaker’s vision of a re-creation…
