Jodi and I review two shows in this episode. First up is Dario Fo's classic farce Accidental Death of an Anarchist which has been updated to modern-day Britain by Tom Basden. This hilarious new adaptation is directed by Dan Raggett, and is running at the Theatre Royal Haymarket until 9th September.
Our second review is of Martin McDonagh's The Pillowman at the Duke of York's Theatre in the West End, directed by Matthew Dunster, and starring Lily Allen and Steve Pemberton. How does McDonagh's uneasy mix of horror and dark comedy work in this revival of his 2004 play?
