Few shows manage to improve on a strong first season, but A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder somehow does exactly that. Season 2 is darker, smarter and far more emotionally gripping than what came before. What began as a compelling teen mystery has evolved into something much more intense, delivering a story that feels mature, unsettling and…
There’s something really exciting about stumbling across a production that completely surprises you, and that’s exactly what happened with An Ideal Husband at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre. Oscar Wilde’s classic already has all the ingredients for brilliant theatre scandal, wit, messy relationships and sharp social commentary but director Nicholas Hytner La Barrie gives it a fresh contemporary twist that makes…
I need to talk about the Off Campus hype. If your social media feed looks anything like mine, you would think this show has single-handedly reinvented romance television. It has not. That said, I do not want to be unfair, because Off Campus is genuinely enjoyable, it just has not quite earned the level of…
What would you do if your fiancée revealed, in front of your friends during wedding preparations, the worst thing they had ever done? In The Drama, this shocking confession becomes the catalyst for the film’s central conflict, as Emma admits that, at 15, she once planned a school shooting but ultimately did not go through with…
When you watch a theatre show and you are completely absorbed in the production, thinking of nothing else, it becomes something special. This is one of those shows that I will think about for a long time. Watching Romeo and Juliet at the Harold Pinter Theatre felt like that kind of experience.

If you’re looking for your next binge-worthy thriller, 56 Days is a must-watch. This isn’t just another crime drama. It’s a distinctive, tightly wound mystery wrapped inside a riveting, sexy psychological thriller the kind that makes you promise yourself one more episode and then immediately ignore that promise. The series opens with a grim discovery inside Apartment…
I was kindly invited by Chloe Nelkin Consulting to attend the workshop performance of a New queer musical Polly: A 21st Century Love Story at The Other Palace Studio and what a brilliant atmosphere to walk into. The studio was absolutely packed, which already felt like a promising sign. There’s something exciting about being in…
Bridgerton is back, and this season arrives with intention. Yes, it’s sexy. Yes, the chemistry is undeniable. But beyond the fan frenzy and viral clips, part one of the new season feels like a story about visibility who gets to be seen, who remains hidden, and what it costs to want more. Compared to last season,…
Filmmaking often looks glamorous from the outside the finished frames, the festival screenings, the cinematic escape. But as director and actor Josh Shea reminds us, the reality is far more grounded.
