Editorial policy
Grand Theatre Review aims to make theatre writing clear, specific and fair. We explain what a piece observes, distinguish interpretation from established detail and correct errors when they are brought to our attention.
Accuracy and context
Writers should check names, titles, dates and other factual details against reliable material where available. When a point is uncertain or interpretations differ, the wording should make that clear. Reviews and essays should describe the production or subject closely rather than leaning on broad claims about what audiences think.
Independence and conflicts
Editorial decisions are made for relevance and clarity, not to promise favourable coverage. Writers should disclose relevant connections that could affect how a subject is presented. A contribution may be declined or revised if a conflict cannot be handled transparently.
Corrections
Readers can send a correction through the Contact page, identifying the article and the detail in question. We assess the information and amend material when warranted, making the nature of a significant correction clear in the article.
Partner material and illustrations
Paid, supplied or otherwise partner-supported material is labelled clearly so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial work. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where relevant, that fact is identified in the accompanying caption or credit.
A play is more than its plot
Theatre happens through choices made in real time. We look at how those choices work together, offering curious theatregoers language for what they notice.
