Best London shows of 2025 and how to to see them in 2026
From Paddington the Musical to Into the Woods at the Bridge Theatre, My Neighbour Totoro, Oh Mary, and All My Sons, this piece looks back at the shows that defined my theatre year in 2025. I share why these productions left such a strong impression and which of them audiences can still catch in 2026.
The Hunger Games on Stage is still finding its fire
The Hunger Games on Stage at the Troubadour Theatre, Canary Wharf, is one of London’s most ambitious new productions — an immersive, high-tech reimagining of Suzanne Collins’ dystopian world. In this Hunger Games on Stage review, I explore how the show’s bold staging, moving set pieces, and talented young cast bring Panem to life, even as the production continues to find its emotional core.
Every Brilliant Thing is an uplifting masterpiece
Every Brilliant Thing is theatre distilled to its most essential form: a story, a performer, an audience. And in that simplicity lies its power. It’s funny, moving, and ultimately uplifting — the kind of production that lingers in the mind and heart long after the lights go down.
