Emma Corrin is a wonderful Orlando. The scene where they wake up as a woman lives in my head rent freeRead more →

Beautiful staging and theatrical lighting. One key moment sticks in my mind everyone I think about this play. Deborah Findlay and Emma Corrina’s chemistry was engaging and elevated what felt like a very rushed story. Too much telling/monologuing rather than showing made the play feel like a cliff-notes version of Virginia Wolfe’s seminal story.Read more →

a whistlestop tour through masculinity over the ages: landlady was a welcome source of humour, Corrin an energetic presence but the play struggles to convince over the course of its short ninety minute run. Front row seats a unique experience, though.Read more →

It was okay but not greatRead more →

Bored out of my mind most of the play. About half an inch deep - guess that’s what you get when two cis men try to imagine what it’s like to one day wake up in a woman’s body. Most “jokes” didn’t make me as much as smile. The attempt at speaking Russian by one of the actresses was just horrendous. Emma Corrin was the only saving grace of this mercifully short disaster.Read more →

It’s like if you ask a really boring and really stuck up person to write a pantoRead more →

Brilliant performance by Emma Corrin, engaging story and inventive stagingRead more →

From its inception I think translating this to the stage was going to be a tall order. Obviously a lot of work went into it but the tone and the framing of it did not work. At times it veered into Horrible Histories territory causing me to wince more then smile. Emma Corrin was I’ll and although her understudy gave a nice performance I can’t believe that even Corrin’s charisma would have saved it.Read more →

Alexandra Downs

Fantastic acting - particularly by the Virgina Woolfs - and intriguing narrative, tho pacing a little slow in the first half. Loved the costume changes too.Read more →

Freddie Shere

Witty, meta, and fully embraced the books whimsical structure. A lot of fun, though not groundbreaking. And that’s fine.Read more →
