Monthly Round-Up: May 2012 part I

I've decided to split May in to two posts, partly to keep on top of the almost ridiculous number of plays I'm seeing this month and partly to fit in with the theme of plays followed by Roman numerals that I seem to have fallen into.

Monthly Round-Up: April 2012

In a first, I have actually got a month written up before I've started going to the next month's theatre. This is because May is, frankly, scary and I'm going to need the time to write it up as I go along. Anyway, April looked like...

Monthly Round-Up: March 2012

Late again. Can only blame the fact that I've been in something of a writing frenzy (of the fictional kind) this last month and completely forgot I hadn't rounded-up March. Whups.

Monthly Round-Up: February 2012

Monthly Round-Up: January 2012

As you may or (more probably) may not have noticed, this blog has rather dropped off the face of the internet over the last six months, beyond the occasional post. In the end it's proved too time consuming for me to write individual reviews and there's certainly no chance I'll be catching up. But I'm not quite ready to throw the blog away yet, so I thought I'd try doing some monthly round-ups of what I've been seeing.

Theatre Round-Up 2011: The Techies

This theatre round-up is brought to you by an excess of lucozade and a fever (sorry about that folks).

Firstly a quick note about the division between my technical and artistic categories – it’s basically rubbish. As the vast majority of the awards in this section are also highly artistic, whilst the awards in the artistic section are equally accomplished technically. But it keeps the sections down to manageable levels, so we’re just going to have to go with it.

Theatre Round-Up 2011: The Arties

The no less technical and no more artistic awards for my favourite performances and productions of 2011. The eagle eyed among you may notice a surprising absence of Shakespeare in this list (though he’s not missing entirely) - this is because to make my choices easier I’ve given him a separate post, coming up next.
