 | Quite good fun - I thought the acting was generally weak with a couple of exceptions (not the ones mentioned in the review)and especially not the one singled out! - Peter | 07 Apr 11 |
| Was very disappointed in this production. Any witty dialogue was ruined by poor acting and bad timing. We laughed more on the way home discussing how bad it was than we did during the play. A big thumbs down. - Christine | 26 Mar 11 |
| Fun, light hearted entertainment. Alice Anthony was fab as the Welsh maid.Would recommend seeing this! - Caroline | 22 Mar 11 |
| I liked it - the dialogue cracked along and the interplay of the different characters kept me engaged right to the end. - richard | 22 Mar 11 |
| Good simple fun. Amaldovar meets Agatha Christie. High camp meets Midsommer Murders. It's not deep and meaningful - but it does come with an unexpected twist! - Neil | 22 Mar 11 |
| Can't recommond this, fun play but badly executed and badly acted, don't know what happened in the second half I had gone for a drink - Jane | 22 Mar 11 |
| It doesn't often happen that I want to walk out on a production. This was one of those rare occasions. The worst acting I have seen for some time. Get the DVD instead. The film is brilliant. It captures the tongue in cheek quality lost here. - Linda | 21 Mar 11 |
| Enter into the experience as one of a team of volunteers to work with families, youth or drug rehab and you find yourself caught up in the lives of families living in this cut off area of London. Once the characters are introduced through a short series of interviews that we are witness to we are plunged into the underworld as head off into the vaults and witness site specific scenes in which we are invited to comment and make suggestions. A unique piece of well researched and written interactive theatre. - Dave J | 15 Apr 10 |
