Wait Until Dark (Garrick Theatre, West End)

 | Truly Godawful. Saskia Wickham seems to think being blind means walking limp, and Peter Bowles is an embarrassment as Roat -- the "big scream" moment is mis-staged (and thus, not a "big scream" moment at all) and the rest of the show makes a poor case for this once-sharp thriller. - USER: Whatsonstage.com (64.164.8.84) | 24 Oct 03 |
| It was AWFUL. Poor acting, very slow. Most of the action was stage left and our seats were left of centre so we missed lots. Plenty of people around us were also yawning. It did nothing to encourage us back to the theatre again. The night we went there was very weak applause and no extra curtain calls. - USER: Whatsonstage.com (217.137.110.33) | 22 Oct 03 |
| Really good night out. Nothing too spectacular or brain scratching; masterfully acted by Peter Bowles. - USER: Whatsonstage.com (194.105.168.6) | 17 Oct 03 |
| I really enjoyed this. It was a good old fashioned thriller and well acted. A good fun night out at the theatre. - USER: Whatsonstage.com (82.35.62.168) | 16 Oct 03 |
| If you only get to see one production this season - make damn sure it isn't this one - USER: Whatsonstage.com (217.41.241.203) | 03 Oct 03 |
| Saw it during its pre-West End run at Windsor. Unbelievable. Why isn't "0" an option? - USER: Whatsonstage.com (217.41.241.203) | 24 Sep 03 |
| Saw Wait Until Dark in Windsor yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. This production has had it's problems with Sam Janus walking out etc, but you would never know. The brilliant central performance by Saskia Wickham as blind Susie holds it all together, she is just very convincing, I could have lived without Peter Bowles but him apart I thought it was deserved for a west end run, nice set to. - USER: Whatsonstage.com (82.35.62.168) | 21 Sep 03 |
