Actor Luke Thallon joins Evening Standard chief theatre critic Nick Curtis to discuss his role in Cold War at the Almeida Theatre, his fourth play at the north London venue.

Nancy and the Nicks review Roald Dahl’s The Witches at the National Theatre, and Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York) at the Kiln Theatre.

They sprinkle in more of the goss from The 67th ES Theatre Awards – two words: Elton John – and offer their top picks of the Christmas shows to see this year.
