Star Stone: Villain Era

2 weeks ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

The story that poet/writer/performer Star Stone has to tell us is a difficult one: when she appeared in a YouTube reality show some years ago, she was the victim of a ‘villain edit’ that made her look… well, like a villain. And yet, this show was listed in comedy when our reviewer saw it, loved it, and gave it a 5/5 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe last summer.
Shereen Roushbaiani: Cul-de-Sac

3 weeks ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

Coming up soon at the Omnibus Theatre is the staging, by producing company Fake Escape, of a new play that focuses on a tense and turbulent night in suburban London. ‘Cul-de-Sac’ is by David Shopland, and the production sees him reunited with performer Shereen Roushbaiani, who, as well as appearing in this new show, starred in his rather successful solo piece ‘Saving Britney’.
Stella Powell-Jones: Little Brother

3 weeks ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

A new play began a run at Jermyn Street a few days ago, and – in fact – if you’re a regular reader of our Three To See tips, you might be aware that we recently recommended it. I was immediately interested in this show as soon as I heard about it, as it’s an adaptation by the acclaimed Timberlake Wertenbaker of an incredible memoir detailing the journey of Ibrahima Balde though the migrant routes of North Africa.
Jamie Sykes: The Last Incel

4 weeks ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

I was really pleased when I found out that ‘The Last Incel’ is headed for a run at London’s Pleasance Theatre this month, because I have heard so many good things about it, during and following its run at edfringe 2024. I dare say most of you are aware of what an incel is, and what this play might be about, and it probably comes as no surprise to discover that it’s set in an online space, and explores a certain, distinctive ideology with a satirical, comedic touch.
Rosalie Minnitt: Clementine

1 month ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

I was excited when I heard that Rosalie Minnitt was headed to Soho Theatre with her excellent comedy character show ‘Clementine’, because we know just how good it is, after we sent a highly trusted member of our team to see it up at the old edfringe in 2023. If you love character comedy, then this is definitely going to be something to add to your watch list.
Robert Khan and Tom Salinsky: The Gang Of Three

1 month ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

When I heard about ‘The Gang Of Three’ – the latest work from playwriting duo Robert Khan and Tom Salinksy – I was immediately interested, because our ThreeWeeks reviewers have been enjoying their funny, satirical, political plays when they have been staged at our beloved edfringe for more than a decade. This new piece is about real life politicians Roy Jenkins, Tony Crosland and Denis Healey, and I’ve no doubt that it will be a show worth seeing.
Gabriel Uboldi and Samuel Rees: Lessons In Revolution

1 month ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

As you know, we are always on the lookout for London runs of the shows we have seen in Edinburgh – and ‘Lessons In Revolution’ is a work that one of our reviewers saw and loved at edfringe 2024. The play, to be staged by Undone Theatre at Jermyn Street shortly, is inspired by a real event: the 1968 student occupation at LSE.
James Rowland: Songs Of The Heart

1 month ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

If you read our words with a degree of regularity, you may well have an idea of who some of our very favourite performers are, especially those ones that we first made contact with up at the Edinburgh Fringe. Which means you may well already know and understand the high esteem in which we hold James Rowland. James specialises in superlatively excellent storytelling solo shows, ones that never fail to touch and entertain us.
Naomi Denny: All The Happy Things

2 months ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

Beginning a run at Soho Theatre this week is SH Productions’ ‘All The Happy Things’, a play by Naomi Denny that’s about bereavement, grief and sisterhood. These are serious themes, but the play itself is a dark comedy, and its approach to a difficult topic is definitely intriguing. I wanted to find out more about the show and its talented playwright, who is also a talented performer, and takes on one of the roles in this three-hander. I spoke to Naomi ahead of opening night.
Georgie Wedge: Per-Verse

2 months ago | thisweekculture.com | Caro Moses

I love a show that’s a bit harder to define, one that doesn’t quite fall into any of the kind of categories you’d find in something like, oh, I dunno… the Edinburgh Fringe programme. Georgie Wedge’s ‘Per-Verse’, which heads to Riverside Studios this week, is rather like that, a one-woman blend of stand-up, poetry, storytelling and physical comedy.
