A potentially strong performance of a play that has interesting ideas but rather lacks something for the modern day audience member.

Interesting and thought-provoking theatre with an odd premise.

Overall, a good production. A great play for fans of small venues and emotionally charged dramas.

A play that’s interesting in parts, but would benefit from fleshing out some of the characters.

This radical adaptation of Zola’s dark and shocking masterpiece is brimming with derailed passion, haunting criminality and withering comedy. Fans of the novel and the play should see this version.

A well-executed piece that blurs the lines between good and evil.

Simple, honest storytelling with intelligence and plenty of (no pun intended) heart.

A thought-provoking, darkly witty and unflinching comment on the care system. Book your tickets right now!

A very well performed, charming revival for the WW1 centenary that feels undeveloped.

A truly brilliant world premiere of this powerful musical, but don’t be surprised if you find yourselves having a few déjà vu moments.
