REVIEW: Bananaman, Southwark Playhouse ✭✭✭
The kids will be somewhat amused by it, and you may enjoy the quips, but Bananaman probably won’t be a holiday show to remember for long.

REVIEW: Lizzie, Greenwich Theatre ✭✭✭✭✭
This is the greatest American musical since ‘Sweeney Todd’. I have seen it twice this week, in the wonderful production by the American director, Victoria Bussert, that is now playing for just three weeks at Greenwich Theatre, and I do not make that claim lightly.
FIRST LOOK: Lizzie, Greenwich Theatre
BritishTheatre.com is pleased to bring you these great first look production photos from Lizzie by Soren Malmose now playing at the Greenwich Theatre. On a sweltering summer morning in 1892, in a small New England city, a prominent businessman and his wife were axed to death in their home. Their daughter Lizzie Borden was the prime suspect. Lizzie’s trial was a coast-to-coast media sensation, and her story has become an American legend. Lizzie is four women fronting a six-piece rock band. Lizzie is rage, sex, betrayal, and bloody murder. Lizzie is American mythology set to a blistering rock score. Lizzie is a new American musical with a sound owing less to Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber than to Bikini Kill, the Runaways, and Heart. Lizzie runs at Greenwich Theatre until 12 March 2017.

REVIEW: Disaster, Charing Cross Theatre ✭✭✭✭✭
There is no doubt in my mind that Disaster! has everything needed to be a success in the West End. Judging from the audience reaction I would have thought it might already be on the cards!
