Brighton Year-Round 2025

‘The Voyage of the Carcass’ and ‘Bobby & Amy’

A double bill to stretch the imagination.


Birdsong

If you think on peace in these distracted times, love theatre, can absorb it at its most epic, then this will thrill and overwhelm you. A must-see.


Dan O’Brien The Voyage of the Carcass; Emily Jenkins Bobby & Amy

Dan O’Brien’s piece is for dedicated farceurs. By itself outstanding, it’s hoped by several Emily Jenkins’ Bobby & Amy have a postlude of its own, with this team and these two young actors pitched at this moment in their careers.


Heka

Gandini Juggles with Magic


James Pusey and Marc Clayton Sitar/Tabla Recital St Nicholas Church, Brighton

The brevity of this review, which can’t translate the subtle shifts of Indian classical music in the way classical music is transmitted, certainly doesn’t reflect its quality. Highly recommended.


Macbeth

A production which shifts bubbles in the earth. And now we are of them.


Macbeth

It’s still a phenomenal feat and even if you know Macbeth, it’s still a must-see for how a quintessence can be dusted off.


Mark Tournoff: A Word With the Bird

Mark Tournoff’s an engaging and modest MC. The talent he promotes remains and makes visits worthwhile.


St Nicholas Yohei Nakajima, Miho Sanou Viola/Piano Recital

A terrific, indeed unique opener to 2025 concerts here.


Sussex Musicians Club SMC Chapel Royal

A very brief night, lasting under 40 minutes, but an invigorating snapshot of tomorrow’s musicians


The Last Laugh

This is a must-see. Never outstaying its welcome, you can leave this show after 85 minutes, but stay for that Q&A. I envy everyone the night I won’t be there for it.
