		<title>Theatre Review: Danton&#8217;s Death at the National Theatre</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Article first published on Blogcritics. by Natalie Bennett The production of Danton&#8217;s Death at the National Theatre is pretty well everything you&#8217;d expect &#8211; well-acted, spectacularly staged, snappily directed. Toby Stephens is a charismatic Danton, the set of Christopher Oram and the lighting of Paule Constable are hugely powerful &#8211; sometimes even more than the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre Review: Don Juan in Love at The Scoop (free)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Natalie Bennett Outdoor theatre is tough, particularly in central London. You&#8217;ve got helicopters, birds, passing drunks &#8211; a lot of distractions. Free outdoor theatre, where the audience can wander in and out at will, is doubly tough. You&#8217;ve got to not just get people, but hold them. That&#8217;s something that the opening night production [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre Review: Better Than Sex at the Courtyard Theatre, Shoreditch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Natalie Bennett Article first published on Blogcritics. How to describe Better Than Sex: Power is Sexy? That&#8217;s a tough question. To start with the easy labels, it&#8217;s billed as a &#8220;musical comedy&#8221;, and gets quite operatic at times. That&#8217;s in terms of how it sounds and feels. In dialogue and lyrics it is, well, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre Review: Spur of the Moment, Jerwood Theatre Upstairs, The Royal Court</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Sarah Cope A play about a 12-year-old girl turning 13, who is played by an 18-year-old, which is written by a 17-year-old (Anya Reiss) and which has a guidance note saying that it’s suitable for 14 years upwards, is always going to be an interesting prospect. The Jerwood Theatre Upstairs, always such an adaptable [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre Review: The Railway Children, Waterloo Station Eurostar Terminal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Sarah Cope What to do with an unused Eurostar terminal? Perhaps the far from obvious answer is to stage a version of E.S. Nesbitt’s children’s classic, The Railway Children, complete with a real steam train. After walking through the rather airless and abandoned terminal, complete with closed-down shops, stained carpets, and cockroach traps, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>How not to write about the people of Spitalfields</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First published on Blogciritics. I was looking forward to The Worst Street in London. An account of an east London street of doss houses frequented by the poorest of the poor might not, I concede, be everyone’s idea of good holiday reading, but I’ve read some spectacularly good micro-histories &#8212; Robert Robert’s The Classic Slum: [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre review: Confessions of a Dancewhore at the Trafalgar Studios</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the introduction to the programme of Confessions of a Dancewhore the creator and performer of the one-person show Michael Twaits says describing what it is is a &#8220;semantic nightmare&#8221; &#8211; and he&#8217;s certainly right. But let&#8217;s try: it&#8217;s part cabaret, part stand-up comedy, part polemic, part tragedy, a lot comedy, part multi-media performance, a [...]]]></description>

		<title>A foraging walk in south London with Lewisham Green Party</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The entertainments of London are many and varied, but I&#8217;d not previously considered a foraging party amid parks and wastelands of south London, followed by a cookup and fine lunch as one of the possibilities. (Thanks Darren!) I now know better. Nettles &#8211; yes I knew about those &#8211; I&#8217;ve made nettle soup (a recipe [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Article first published as Theatre Review (London): Dig by J.D. Smith and No More, Salvator? by Michael Hart at the Old Red Lion on Blogcritics. A one-act play is a tricky thing. You need to present the characters, create scenarios for them, then neatly roll it up, all within something less than an hour. You [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theatre Review: George Orwell&#8217;s 1984 presented by the Blind Summit Theatre and Battersea Arts Centre</title>
		<description><![CDATA[That you could turn 1984 into a seriously comic story is one surprising aspect of the Blind Summit Theatre&#8217;s premiere production of the Orwell classic. That you could play Charrington and Goldestein with puppets and make that make glorious sense is another. And when you add quite the oddest, but possibly most effective, sex scene [...]]]></description>
