Jonathan Bailey in Richard II, KT Tunstall, Backstroke

From dashing prince to hopeless king, Jonathan Bailey leaves the world of Wicked behind - for a few months at least - as he takes on one of Shakespeare's trickier tyrants in Richard II at the Bridge Theatre. Nancy, Nick and Nick give their verdicts. Two national treasures hit the Donmar stage this month: Celia Imrie and Tamsin Greig play a mother and daughter dealing with the consequences of a stroke in Anna Mackmin's new play Backstroke. And Nancy chats to KT Tunstall about her musical adaptation of iconic 90s film Clueless.
