Review: EAST IS SOUTH at Hampstead Theatre

What happens when the boffins of Artificial Intelligence, including a Russian emigré who now works for the NSA, decide to test their code writing abilities against the age old question around God and man?

Review: STALLED at King's Head Theatre

As a theatre reviewer, I frequently encounter commendable projects. Projects where the individuals involved are invested, engaged and obviously talented. But sometimes, even with such credentials the end result doesn’t quite pay off. It pains me to report that such an instance is STALLED, which recently opened at Angel Islington’s indomitable institution The King’s Head Theatre, where new seating was especially in-stalled for the occasion.
