Bush Theatre
Shepherds Bush Green London

A nurse, a delivery driver, and an entrepreneur walk into a speed awareness course…



Abz is the UK’s leading expert on road safety and the most in-demand course facilitator north of the M25.



In an entirely average hotel basement somewhere in Birmingham, three speedsters are summoned to his class with a choice: change your ways, or lose your licence.



But a routine training course quickly veers into a tumultuous group therapy session as they are forced to confront the real question: why are you all so angry?



SPEED is a break-neck journey through the daily annoyances and deep-buried secrets that leave us spinning. Hilarious and heartfelt, this world premiere production reunites writer Mohamed-Zain Dada and director Milli Bhatia after the wild success of the Olivier Award-nominated, Blue Mist (Royal Court).

Review: MRS. DOUBTFIRE at Blumenthal Performing Arts
by Perry Tannenbaum - May 3, 2024


Pardon me a second, but I seem to be noticing stretch marks on my suspension of disbelief. Three nights before the curtain rose on the touring version of MRS. DOUBTFIRE that rolled into Belk Theater, I saw a rather fine production of Twelfth Night across town at Central Piedmont College. Since both of the brief runs include at least one matinee between now and Sunday, my experience of seeing two wives who fail to identify their true husbands can be intensified, compressed into the space eight hours, if you wish, after my relatively relaxed 75-hour exercise.

Review: THE CHER SHOW at THEATRE UNDER THE STARS
by Brett Cullum - Apr 18, 2024


I am unsure if I know of any other music diva who needs three different actresses to play her, but Cher seems to have required that. We have not one, not two, but three Chers in this show. And do they trot on, do their part of life, and leave? Heck no! They all talk to each other, advise each other, and sing together all night long. It’s like the three musketCHERs or something!
