Editor's Choice - Theatre

06 August, 2010
by: Naima Khan

Every Monday our editors bring you their personal highlights of the week ahead. Naima Khan selects her top three plays.

Earthquakes in London @ National Theatre

All Week
Earthquakes in London @ National Theatre
If you think your buttocks can take three and a quarter hours of theatre, this is probably the best show in town to test them on. Earthquakes in London is an epic roller-coaster of a play about family reconciliation and environmental catastrophe complete with song and dance. 

All Week
Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens @ Shaw Theatre 
Prepare to be moved but also tickled. This is a warm combination of spoken word and music that tells the stories of 30 people who died from AIDS, and the family and friends they left behind.


From 21st August

Deathtrap @ Noel Coward Theatre
Previews begin this week for murder, thriller, comedy Deathtrap starring the brilliant Simon Russell Beale and that dude from Glee. Looks like fun.
