It looks like a very strong season to me, in as much as you can work out what the plays may be about from the given descriptions. A new John Logan play, "Double Feature", directed by Jonathan Kent, looks to be a highlight. It's certainly not all revivals, so good to see that new plays are still in the mix for now. Some depends on casting as well, but yeah, looks like a good mix of different types of plays to me

I enjoyed the performances, the songs and staging. Had a good time
However, the story is absolutely ridiculous. Everyone was Horny like it was a carry on film
The whole show is REALLY weird. I assume it was played for laughs, because no way is that a serious plot

Non-theatre, the BFI membership is very good. Two free tickets, 10% off the bar and cheaper tickets, at around £39.00 a year, is worthwhile

Having seen this tonight I will say if you haven’t already booked for this do so. For me it’s a 5⭐️ show (with a standing ovation at the end) from start to finish and a nice 90 minute straight through so an early finish to boot. It’s a fantastic piece of writing from Ryan Calais Cameron that is brought to life by the 3 guys on stage who have great on stage chemistry. Ivanno Jeremiah’s performance as Sidney is quite honestly worth the ticket price alone. He completely owns the stage and his delivery of a speech near the end is just powerful stuff to watch and delivers a real acting masterclass. It’s a real engaging and thought provoking piece of theatre that also provides a nice history lesson about the events and attitudes of the US at that time. Quite honestly the Kiln have got a gem of a show with this one and I’ll be disappointed if nobody picks this up for a transfer to the WE. It certainly deserves a life post the Kiln run. I was thinking maybe theatre Royal haymarket now they are doing short run plays

David Hare will be happy www.broadwayworld.com/westend/article/Theatre-Royal-Haymarket-Reviving-Tradition-of-Being-a-Playhouse-20230504"At the Theatre Royal Haymarket we are beginning an exciting new era. Our focus will be on reviving the theatre's tradition as one of the West End's great playhouses. To achieve this, the Haymarket will focus on limited-run plays that strike the balance between premium quality and commercial potential," he said. The theatre has most recently been home to the musical of Only Fools and Horses. Cohen said that, while musicals were not "ruled out", the primary focus would be on plays in the future. For 2023 and 2024, Cohen said that this is likely to focus on limited runs rather than open-ended productions.
