I can't remember the last time this happened, but this week I saw my second five star production of the month! everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/10/revi... @everything-theatre.co.uk @sohotheatre.bsky.social

My 4 star review of this "Fresh and original musical comedy about a rarely discussed subject matter" is now up on @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/10/revi...

Was blown away by Gesher Theatre's production of Oscar Wilde's Salome, it's one of those plays that I know I'll be thinking about for months if not years to come, and my review of it is now online @everything-theatre.co.uk - everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/10/revi...

I really can't thank Jason over at www.instagram.com/geekmid enough for his kind words about the third and final issue of The Chefs of Death, and you can check out the full review at midlifegamergeek.com/2025/08/07/r...

There's 1 week left to go to back The Chefs Of Death Issue 3, we've already made over £400 for ‪@crisis-uk.bsky.social‬ but it'd be amazing to raise even more, so if you like fun, slightly mad comics (or know anyone who does) then please check out the link below www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

For the first time ever I reviewed two shows on the same night this week! everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/06/revi... and everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/06/revi...

We're now able to announce the first two cameos in the third issue, as acclaimed 2000AD & X-Men writer David Hine and beloved comedy actor Paul Putner will make appearances, with Paul featuring as his TMWRNJ character The Curious Orange! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

The Kickstarter for the final issue of The Chefs Of Death is now live. I think it's the most fun issue yet too, as Queen Elizabeth II from a parallel universe arrives on the scene and attempts to defeat the awful aliens Frandor and Capidom once and for all! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

Was really impressed by Outpatient, it tackles a serious subject in a surprisingly light and playful manner which makes it all the more effective. @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/05/revi...

One week today the Kickstarter for the 3rd issue of The Chefs of Death will begin, where what's left of humanity will battle the ravenous aliens Capidom and Frandor one final time! I'll be posting more pictures and info soon, but for now here's the pre-launch URL www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

A mixture of monologues, songs, video and live cooking, I can genuinely say I've never seen anything quite like Jaha Koo's superb Haribo Kimchi show before. @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/05/revi...

The Kickstarter for the third and final issue of The Chefs Of Death will begin on May 31st, and more info will be posted soon. In the meantime we've been very flattered to receive a 4 star review for the first two issues from Joe over at Comic Book News UK. www.comicbooknews.co.uk/article/revi...

Saw and loved Natalie Palamides: Weer at the Soho Theatre Walthamstow on Friday, it's a ★★★★★ slice of clowning and comedy which astonished throughout. @sohotheatre.bsky.social #theatre #comedy #walthamstow everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/05/revi...

My four star review of Bertie Hodd's sublime Dad Jokes show is now up on @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/04/revi...

Really enjoyed Alice Lowe's Timestalker last night, it looks like a high budget Kate Bush video and has a nicely weird plot, along with some very funny jokes.

If you're fond of Airplane / Naked Gun style parodies, I highly recommend catching Gangbang at the Seven Dials Playhouse. everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/02/revi...

Drama Girls might benefit from a slightly more conventional narrative, but otherwise this is a show where it was fascinating to witness the demands put upon women training in the performing arts. @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/02/revi...

This is a beautiful tribute.

A pitch black Ealing comedy for the 21st Century, I really can't recommend Revenge: After the Levoyah highly enough. everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/01/revi... @everything-theatre.co.uk @nickcassenbaum.bsky.social @theyardtheatre.bsky.social

The Chefs Of Death is up for Best Independent Comic in the ComicScene 2025 awards, so hey, if you've a spare thirty seconds to vote it'd be enormously appreciated. comicscene.org/2025/01/05/t...

My round up of 2024's best live comedy features Julia Masli, Amy Gledhill, Nish Kumar, Two Hearts, Ian Lane, Judd Apatow, Emma Sidi, Colin Hoult and a good few others, and is now up @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2025/01/feat...

Here's a few statistics about my reviews for @everything-theatre.co.uk this year, along with some site wide ones. everything-theatre.co.uk/author/alex-...

My final review for the year is now up on @everything-theatre.co.uk, which was of a rehearsed reading of "Never Lies", a slightly odd mix of romcom and political drama. everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/12/revi...

Caught @5teviem.bsky.social sky.social and Julia Masli at @sohotheatre.bsky.social last night and both were superb, I don't think I've laughed that much during one evening in years.

My 4 star review of the captivating and affecting play Bright Places by Rae Mainwaring at @sohotheatre.bsky.social is now up on @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/12/revi...

Caught Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief at The Other Palace on Thursday, it's a weird mix of cartoonish silliness which also wants to be taken seriously at times, and the combination doesn't quite work. everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/11/revi...

If you're in the mood for a pantomime which is fresh and innovative while still being lots of daft fun, I'd highly recommend Charles Court Opera's new show Napoleon: Un Petite Pantomime at @jstheatre.bsky.social @everything-theatre.co.uk everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/11/revi...

Saw this being made by the side of the Thames yesterday, I've absolutely no idea what it's about but I was impressed by the amount of work put in to it.

My review of The World Of Yesterday is now up on @everytheatre.bsky.social, but unfortunately it's an oddly confusing cabaret based on the life of writer Stefan Zweig where conclusions never quite seem to be made. everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/11/revi...

I don't exactly know what a "Boy Band Buff Brunch" is, but @nytimes.com seems very excited about it.

#Review: Yes, We’re Related, The Other Palace ★★★★ "A tight, funny and extremely well acted comedy that I’m certain would be a big hit if ever made for TV." #theatre #comedy #offwestend everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/11/revi...

It was only a work in progress, but I still really enjoyed Olga Koch's new show at The Bill Murray last night, and in a sane world she'd have a huge hit with it.

Watched Judgment At Nuremberg for the 1st time and it's a much more thoughtful, considerate film than I predicted, but still absolutely devastating at times. It also feels like a relic from the distant past, and I can't imagine a film being made twenty years from now examining the impact Trump had.

Yes, We're Related is at The Other Palace for another couple of nights, and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes fun, bright sitcom style comedy. everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/11/revi...

The third and final issue of The Chefs Of Death will be out in Spring 2025, and then in the Autumn I'll be releasing my first full colour photo story graphic novel, which I've just started work on this week...

Chris Denton & David Hitchcock's The Whitechapel Cordon is now on Kickstarter & it's already received a rave review from @GeekMid - "I can’t recommend it enough; it’s the perfect period piece; pretty much essential reading for fans of comic book horror." www.kickstarter.com/projects/chr...

My review of Fly More Than You Fall at the Southwark Playhouse Elephant is now up on Everything Theatre, it's a flawed musical, but it did impress in places. everything-theatre.co.uk/2024/10/revi...

The Kickstarter for the 80s inspired photo comics The Chefs Of Death and Hawk Issue 1982 has just over two days left go, and as all profits are going to Mind we'd appreciate any support you can give the project, even if it's just a repost! :) kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

Recently The Chefs of Death has had a number of very positive recommendations, including from superstar artist Boo Cook, legendary comics editor Barrie Tomlinson, and the superb review site MidLifeGamerGeek. kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

MidLifeGamerGeek.com's review of The Chefs Of Death is now up, stating that it's "A really fun read, with incredibly silly puns and plot developments throughout... No prior knowledge of Doomlord or even The Chefs of Death #1 is needed to enjoy this second issue". midlifegamergeek.com/2024/06/17/c...

Boo Cook is the latest comics superstar who has been kind enough to cameo in The Chefs Of Death, so if you want to find out what he's saying and why, please back the Kickstarter! :) #comics #indiecomics #Doomlord #scificomics #kickstartercomics kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

The other comic that's part of this Kickstarter contains a homage to one of my favourite Eagle strips, where the heroic Jimmy Mayberry has to play a real life version of (what I've called for copyright issues) Bobbily Bubbily! #retrogaming #retrogames kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

Wow, we've hit our first stretch goal, so the first "Tales From Different Dimensions: The New Batch" will be added to the comic. And now if we're fortunate enough to hit our second stretch goal at the £650 mark we'll add another three page story to the comic! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

The Kickstarter for the 80's inspired photo comics The Chefs Of Death and Hawk, starring the award winning comedian Ian Lane, Chris Denton & Chloe Taylor, is now live, with all profits going to @MindCharity. Plus there's a 13 page free sampler of Hawk Issue 1982! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale...

No spoilers, but god I loved that first new episode of Doctor Who, and Ncuti was f***ing majestic!

I'm a big fan of Paul Cornell's, so I really hope this gets funded. zoop.gg/c/whokilledn...

The first 5 star review of 2024 is now up on the site, as Alex Finch found himself giddy with laughter at Ian Lane's new show, an hour of comedy that's packed with smart, original ideas and very, very funny jokes and routines. comedytowatch.wordpress.com/2024/03/02/l...

The #ReleaseCoyoteVsAcme debacle seems really confusing to me, surely Warner Bros are losing a huge amount of good will from customers & those in the industry? It'd be really good to see some major names publically boycott them too, though I know many can't afford to do that.

The second issue has been written and photography just begun on the second issue of The Chefs Of Death!

A project that I began during the pandemic, I've now watched every Disney film that had a cinema release, and below are my almost certainly incorrect opinions about these films. And yes, I know, everyone loves Lilo & Stitch more than me and I can't understand why I didn't click with it either...
