A List of Everything I Reviewed

I reviewed theatre in London for just over a year. In that time I wrote 58 reviews, which averaged out about one a week. In truth, the volume of plays came in waves.

It started with a surreal cabaret that involved cross-dressing Rasputin with a wooly willy and ended in the joke "Campanology is a great way to hang out at the weekend with big dongs."

Highs along the way included a tight horror story, a moving tale of a piano, a court masque and a three person Dickens show.

Low points included a repeated question about a mouse, a badly rehearsed thing in a tower block and tiring relationship drama with not enough aliens. 

Now I am a long way away from the bright(ish) lights and pub backrooms and, to be honest, I miss it a little. However, I am in a play - and every time I sat to review a piece of theatre, I had a yearning to be in one. 

However, for my own use more than anything else, here is a clickable list of everything I reviewed in that time. 


The play I am in is One Man, Two Guvnors at the Caxton Theatre. I play one of the guvnors, Stanley Stubbers, and you can find more about that here.
