Press Reviews
We have reviews for the following productions:
the wonderfully talented Blackeyed Theatre
one of the most innovative and critically acclaimed theatre companies on the touring circuit today
Any assumption that Oh! What a Lovely War is a period piece is shot to shrapnel. Forty years on, we need Littlewood’s vision more than ever. Blackeyed Theatre restore it to us with astonishing power. Catch it if you can
This is theatre at its best. I was completely there, in the action, caring deeply for the characters.
The crowded house was impressively mixed, with school parties, pensioners and everyone in between. And they loved every moment This was evident from the older members of the audience singing along with the ‘community songs’ that I recall from a 1950s childhood, and from the youngsters who led the standing ovation at the end.
Joan Llittlewood, who always dreaded that her creation would be highjacked by elitist and middle class theatres, would have been delighted by this production
A remarkable evening
