Very good play. Theater is very hot !
Really excellent production. Staging was very effective, and acting superb
Came in expecting theatre and a fun play about a family and a house connected through time and got a physics and maths lecture spoken in old English and Latin making it hard to follow and stay engaged, left at the interval..
A fine production of a deep and thought-provoking play.
Beautiful synogy of play and production. Design perfectly compliments the text! Stunning ensemble of performances.
Wonderful thought provoking theatre
Beautiful production, really enjoyed this masterpiece very much indeed thank you!
fascinating play, best seen twice, the middle of the second act dips a bit
Absolutely suffocating heat in the theatre and really uncomfortable seats which is a form of torture when the play is three house
Seats were on stage, tickets special offer, excellent. Play is peak Stoppard, blend of intellect, wit, humanity. I saw the original at the NT in 1993; it had a vast set that looked like Capability Brown whereas this production is small and intimate - both excellent but surprising how much it changes the feel of the play, this version focuses on the words. However one criticism: the actors wore mics and on a couple of people in the second half they resonated, sounded fake (which was very obvious because the other actors didn't). Also the programme isn't worth buying: it provides info about the background science and lots of credits, but doesn't provide a scene setting and character list, which to me is the essential page of any programme.
An absolutely fantastic production. The staging and acting was top class and the storyline was fascinating. Some deeply dense dialogue was delivered with aplomb and I was mesmerised through the entire performance. Thoroughly enjoyable
Very good onstage seats at a bargain price. The show itself, although slightly undercast, has *vastly* improved since its run at the Old Vic: recommended - but have your wits about you!
Although first shown in 1993 it’s still fresh, intelligent, witty and relevant. It’s performed in the round with the rotating stage a representation of time making the on stage seating a great theatrical bargain.
Interesting plot and excellent actors play
Very interesting and conceptual show, with good actors and witty dialogue.
