6 Actors in Search of a Director (Charing Cross Theatre (formerly New Players Theatre), Inner London)

 | Six actors in search of a director...more like six actors in search of a direction (to the job centre!) This "performance" was absolutely cringe-worthy from the slow and dragged out beginning to long awaited end. Bloody this, bloody that, effing this and effing that, a-hole, t***er, and even the C word mentioned continuously throughout. (I've heard only the uneducated use swearing for conversation as they can think of nothing better to say...is this true Berkoff??!) Fortunately (or unfortunately) I obtained free tickets- this play is not worth paying for at any cost. And no Interval??...good job for the cast as few would return. Not recommended for it's appauling story line, acting and unecessarily obscene language. Stick with Silk, Neil Stuke! - NC | 20 Jun 12 |
| If you want an evening of swearing then this is the place to come. Absolutely appalled by the continuous use of bad language which even included the 'c' word to which the audience gasped in disbelief.Certainly not the humorous play I was expecting. No wonder it wasn't a full house. - DAO | 19 Jun 12 |
| Just saw this play tonight. Absolutely brilliant!! It is so perceptive and the audience were laughing from start to finish. Strange how the reviewer didn't seem to get it. I do wonder whether there is a bit of trend amongst reviewers of slagging off Berkoff. Anyway, do go and see this! Whether you are an actor or not you will love this wonderfully paced and witty script. A thoroughly enjoyable evening out. Long live Berkoff!! - Carollyn Eden | 15 Jun 12 |
