Drama

The Last March, Southwark Playhouse – Review
A fun play where the saying ‘time flies when you’re having fun’ really does apply. It is a light-hearted piece but perhaps Tinder Theatre try to drag out their superb jokes a little too much.

Neil LaButeDirected by Samuel Miller ★★★ Pros: Some very good acting with strong and clearly identified character development. Cons: Not the most exciting play, and the subject matter felt a bit dated. Our Verdict: A safe and solid production with…
