	Elmina's Kitchen @ Garrick Theatre, London : theatre review
		His familiarity as a face on the television may well draw in a certain proportion of the audience for his new production at the Garrick - indeed Kwei-Armah happily admits he hopes this is the case - but it’s the play’s energy and relevance that will end up leaving a lasting impression.

		A critical success when it opened at the National Theatre in 2003, this is one of a pathetically tiny number of plays by fl British writers - in fact the only one that I can think of - to make it to the West End.
