The Last Confession (Chichester Festival Theatre, Chichester)
Back to Show Details| Score | Comment | Date |
 | This is a truly gripping, well crafted, superbly acted and stunningly staged play. It deals primarily with the idea that there was a conspiracy, all the rage today, behind the death of Pope John Paul I, And that rather than dying peacefully in his sleep he was in fact murdered, and not just by any old murderer who wandered in off the streets, but by someone in the Vatican. An absolutely shocking idea at first sight, and might just seem plain daft until the play begins to unfold. I found it gripping and deserving of a wider audience. I hope a West End transfer is on the cards, and after that - Broadway? This must be one to watch out for at next years Bafta's. - rds | 30 Apr 07 |
