From Armenia
Production shots from the sobering and unmissable I Wish to Die Singing at the Finborough Theatre.
The play, which looks at the Armenian Genocide, runs to 16 May.
Slash, wax, cage
So last week the LSMT were spreading grunge anarchy through the Bridewell Theatre. This time it’s the indescribably mad combination of waxworks, Victorian serial killing and spacious jail cells in Redhead.
The show runs to Saturday 2 May.
Boulevard of Broken Dreams
So how do you shoot hip-hop choreography? By drinking two litres of water the moment you get home, as it happens.
Shots from the London School of Musical Theatre’s phenomenal and utterly anarchic take on Green Day’s American Idiot at the Bridewell Theatre.
Note that if you’re intending to see it there’s only tonight and tomorrow night left of the run.
Liberty leading the people
Some production shots from the radical reworking of Gilbert and Sullivan’s controversial Princess Ida at the Finborough Theatre.
The (extremely entertaining) show runs until 18 April.
Enigma in the dark
Production shots from director Matthew Parker’s incredibly inventive European premiere of Snoo Wilson’s play Lovesong of the Electric Bear at the Hope Theatre.
The show, which gives a (very) fresh take on the life of Alan Turing, runs to 21 March.
Photo geeks may be interested to know that lots of these images were shot at f1.2. Which is the production photography equivalent of “terrifying”.
Pretty Woman
It’s back to the Coliseum for shots from the English National Opera’s magnificent production of Verdi’s La Traviata, with Elizabeth Zharoff as Violetta and Ben Johnson as Alfredo.
The show opened yesterday and runs for nine performances.
Opera with shoes
Shots from the English National Opera and director Richard Jones’s spectacular production of Wagner’s Mastersingers of Nuremberg.
The show opens on 7 February.
Be round impal’d with a glorious crown

The show runs at the Union Theatre up to 24 January.
