REVIEW: Tonight With Donny Stixx, The Bunker ✭✭✭✭✭
This is about as perfect a production of Philip Ridley’s scary monodrama – a kind of ‘The Events’, except with loads more jokes, and much less singing – as anyone is going to see in a while.
Tonight With Donny Stixx Comes To The Bunker
Fresh from its critically acclaimed 2015 Edinburgh Festival season, Metal Rabbit, in association with the Bunker Theatre will present Philip Ridley’s Tonight With Dony Stixx. Donny has committed an act that shocked everyone. Tabloids called him The Most Hated Boy Alive. But, despite this, Donny doesn’t want forgiveness. All Donny wants is his own television show. Written originally as the companion piece to Fringe First winning Dark Vanilla Jungle, this brutal monologue leaves us in flux between sympathy and loathing, shocked by what unfolds. Stixx is a compelling one-man show about our celebrity-obsessed culture, the damage our parents can inflict on us and the dangers of delusion. Tonight with Donny Stixx is directed by David Mercatali, and performed by Sean Michael Verey. Tonight with Donny Stixx will run at The Bunker from 8 November – 3 December 2016.

REVIEW: The Fastest Clock In The Universe, Old Red Lion Theatre ✭✭✭✭✭
Tom O’Brien’s production is a rare opportunity to see one of Ridley’s greatest works performed to such a high standard. Not for the faint of heart, and not to be missed.
