Kneehigh’s The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk | Review

December 5, 2020 Last updated: December 7, 2020 5:22 pm By Sally Knipe

I have a confession; I have seen The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk before, actually, I’ve seen it twice before in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and at Wilton’s Music Hall. I loved it so much I jumped at the chance to see it again, this time virtually from Bristol Old Vic. It gave a completely different […]

Guildford Shakespeare Company’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Guildford Shakespeare Company's A Midsummer Night's Dream

This production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is an adaptation of Guildford Shakespeare Company’s (GSC) 2017 open-air production. Lotte Wakeham, who is now Artistic Director of the Octagon Theatre, Bolton, has returned to GSC to direct this online version, a co-production with the Octagon Theatre. I am really pleased that this, like all GSC’s online […]

UK Tour of Bang Bang! at Yvonne Arnaud Theatre Guildford | Review

March 4, 2020 Last updated: March 4, 2020 5:44 pm By Sally Knipe

Bang Bang! is, perhaps, rather surprisingly, John Cleese’s stage-writing debut. It is an adaption of Georges Feydeau’s farce “Monsieur Chasse”, written in French in 1892. John Cleese and Director Daniel Buckroyd’s version keeps the story in the time and place that it was originally set: Paris in the mid-1890s but, thankfully, it is performed in […]

I feel quite honoured to be attending the professional debut of this evening’s cast who are all alumni of the Rose Youth Theatre. Ciaran McConville, the former Director of Learning and Participation at the Rose Theatre has updated Mary Shelley’s ‘Frankenstein’ with references to modern technology that brings the story right up to date but […]

Macbeth by Guildford Shakespeare Company | Review

February 12, 2020 Last updated: February 12, 2020 1:17 pm By Sally Knipe

Guildford Shakespeare Company’s (GCS) content warning certainly tells you everything you need to know! “Shakespeare’s Macbeth contains themes of violence, war, murder, infanticide and the supernatural.” No surprises then. However, the production is set against the background of a very contemporary guerrilla war, with whistling gunfire amidst a smoky haze, making the audience feel as […]
