Brighton Year-Round 2022
Don’t miss this authentic, touching, devastatingly comic anatomy of a marriage as soufflé, supremely served by Rhys-Jones and Dee.
Still an outstanding production we might take for granted, Stephen Daldry has overhauled it, and crafted new touches of comedy and music-hall exaggeration.
A small masterpiece of amused, unflinching reveal, which does something no-one else has done at all.
This is more than panto: it’s an affirmation of something that panto here welcomes in, in our time uniquely invoking layers as only Elizabethan/Jacobean drama can.
An outstanding must-see, even for those who might have seen Noises Off more than once before.
Private Lives can never disappoint: it plays itself and as far as it’s a work of verbal tennis this production won’t pall either
Actually improves on Brown with theatrical humour and bold gestures; with a set that tells the story almost as much as the strong cast.
A triumph for all concerned. Juliet Stevenson even gains in stature. Robert Icke’s revival could hardly go better than this.
Simply put: go see this if you’ve any feeling for postwar drama. It’s theatre on the rack and do we need it!
Certainly enjoyable and the second act shows what it might be. There’s not a moment’s longeurs
The Rise and Fall of Little Voice
The Rise and Fall of Little Voice sings out of damage into heartbreak and redemption. Those who don’t know the play or its outcome should see this, even those who have.
Halfpenny raises soaring music theatre, an ounce of gold in the throat and stars six inches above it.
