In this week’s episode we’re reviewing House of Games at Hampstead Theatre, a gripping adaptation of David Mamet’s noir thriller, and speaking with performer Ben Welch about his upcoming show The House of Life.

House of Games at Hampstead Theatre


House of Games follows celebrated psychoanalyst Dr. Margaret Ford as she takes on a new client, Billy, whose dangerous addictions lead him into the world of illicit poker games. As she digs deeper into his case, she finds herself entwined in Chicago’s criminal underworld and facing off against Mike, a charismatic gambler. This fast-paced, tense thriller, adapted by Richard Bean, is full of twists, deception, and complex characters who may not even know the rules of the game they’re playing. Directed by Jonathan Kent, House of Games is a must-see for fans of dark psychological dramas and taut thrillers.
