Performance Reviews

Splendid: Dr Faustus

A politically charged adaptation that packs a punch

Shakespeare's Globe: The Merry Wives of Windsor

A riotous retelling injected with modern twists

Richard III

Clever and impactful design decisions stand out in this bold touring production.

Julius Caesar

A gripping production and an insightful collection of extras make this an essential resource.

Home, I'm Darling

Witty, thought-provoking, sometimes comically painful, an excellent new play.

Come from Away

The best new musical I've seen in a long time

Caroline, or Change

Extraordinary performances but strangely dulled in its impact

Hadestown

Lovely to look at and to listen to but missing something in the telling

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

A powerful and polished play packed into a school hall

NT on tour: Macbeth

A confused design-concept renders this production disappointing
