Review: A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at The Young Vic

As a foreign theatre maker living and working in the UK, I exalt radical approach towards Shakespeare, especially when it comes to mainstream theatre. Fortunately there is The Barbican, the fantastic work that Phyllida Llyod has done at The Donmar Warehouse and of course Emma Rice's tenure at The Globe but I do feel that overall most of the British theatre directors are still quite safe when it comes to The Bard.
Review: THIS IS NOT CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT at The Vault Festival

After you spend a lot of time in the theatre, be it watching or making it, sooner or later you begin to yearn for a surprise. You want to see work that will stop your breath, stay with you for a long while and make you question the status-quo in a creative and non patronising way. After missing THIS IS NOT CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT last summer at Edinburgh Fringe I finally managed to see the piece at this year's The Vault Festival, and I can't express how mind blown I was by Adam Scott- Rowley's absurdist and hypnotising one man show.

Henrik Ibsen’s HEDDA GABLER is one of those “sacred pieces” that not many directors dare to reimagine. The Belgian visionary Ivo van Hove who took UK’s theatre scene by storm in 2014 with his bold take on Arthur Miller’s classic A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE is one of them. The pioneer of a method in which he challenges the parameters of the classics, now van Hove takes on to the National Theatre’s stage with Patrick Marber’s adaptation of HEDDA GABLER. Together with a great ensemble, led by the phenomenal Ruth Wilson, van Hove creates a trailblazing production, in which despite themodernisation, Ibsen’s heroine appears more visceral than ever.
Review: LOVE’S LABOUR’S LOST and MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING at Theatre Royal Haymarket
By Nastazja Domaradzka Monday, December 26 2016, 09:48
RSC’s festive offering, the double bill of LOVE’S LABOUR’S LOST and MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING is a wonderfully light treat for those who are after some comedy this winter. There are great performances throughout and Simon Highlett’s set does wonders but Christopher Luscombe’s production feels too old fashioned and not inventive enough to be a memorable one.
