The Review - THEATRE
Published: 18 June 2009
 
Into the Wings

• QUICK thinking and rapier wit are essential for the weekly topical satire show, NewsRevue at the Canal Cafe Theatre in Delamere Terrace.
Director Racky Plews, of Upstairs at the Gatehouse fame, takes the reins this month for what describes itself as “the world’s longest running live comedy show”.
Simon Lipkin (Avenue Q) and Thaila Zucchi (Boeing Boeing) lead the cast in a series of rapid-fire improvisations, every Thursday to Sunday until July 5.
Tickets are £9.50, £7.50 concessions.

IT might be located in the shadow of the Hampstead Theatre in Swiss Cottage, but the Central School of Speech and Drama stands on its own two feet in every other sense.
Productions of impressively high quality go largely unnoticed here throughout the year, until the summer months, when the school throws its doors open to the general public.
Between June and July, audiences can catch Oliver’s Army, a musical revue based on the back catalogue of Elvis Costello; Buchner's famous tragedy, Woyzeck; a quadruple bill of short Pinter plays in tribute to the late playwright – The Lover, The New World Order, A Kind of Alaska and Precisely.
The season comes to a close on July 3-4 with that old summer favourite, Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
Each show is performed by undergraduates or MA students and last only a few days per production, so be quick.
The Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London is in Eton Avenue, NW3. Tickets can be purchased from the box office: 020 7722 8183.
