APEX PREDATOR delivers a modern twist on the vampire story, with sufficient nods to the past to keep it relevant to lovers of the genre. But does it induce toothy titillation or tedium?

Review: RHINOCEROS at Almeida
By Stuart King Wednesday, April 2 2025, 09:50
Eugène Ionesco’s RHINOCEROS was first performed at the end of the 1950s and was created as a direct result of the playwright’s experience with Romania’s Iron Guard, the country’s equivalent of the Nazi Party.

Review: STILETTO at Charing Cross Theatre
By Stuart King Tuesday, April 1 2025, 09:39
Beneath the dramatic and imposing sight of Venice’s eternal symbol (the winged lion of St Mark), the city bustles about its business. Catholic patronage and trading wealth no longer vie for supremacy, but instead make for easy and comfortable bedfellows in 1730.

Review: MAN IN THE MIRROR at Golders Green Hippodrome
By Stuart King Sunday, March 23 2025, 11:00
Proud use of the title of Michael Jackson’s famous hit song in naming this production, would suggest that the producers of MAN IN THE MIRROR are actively challenging and defying the rabid cancel culture movement and instead choose to celebrate the performances, songs and stage shows of the late The King of Pop.
