Oklahoma (Young Vic): I enjoyed it very much, although I agree it was not as transcendent as in New York. The highlight for me was Marisha Wallace, who was stunning. As I recall (it’s been a while) the indigenous people of Oklahoma played more of a role in the NY production than this one. I understand why they didn’t here, but subtleties were lost. But overall a brilliant reimagining and appropriate, at this particular moment for the US. The likes of Laurey and Ado Annie will have many fewer choices, going forward.

Top 5 of 2022: Best (of new to me, otherwise Jerusalem would have made an appearance):

Cock
Six @ Hampton court palace was v cool

Worst:
Hex (again)
To kill a mockingbird (sorry, the accents did it in for me)

ETA the just boring: The Crucible, The Father and the Assassin, Who Killed My Father
