The awards Paul and Patsy got for this were very well deserved !Read more →

Patsy Ferran was a true star, Paul Mescal wasn’t bad either but the production seemed to be directed by a GCSE student who by all efforts wanted to outshine the actors and the play itself. Also, why all American plays have to show painfully fake American accents and why do they need to pour water from the ceiling just because they have that feature available…Read more →

The Almeida’s take on A Streetcar Named Desire was phenomenal and definitely deserved all the awards it has won so far. All of the actors on stage were amazing and the minimalist set really focused the audience onto the feelings of Blanche Dubois and her downfall.Read more →

Paul Mescal was mesmerizing and terrifying. Patsy Ferran delicate in her vulnerability and wonderfully flawed. Breathtaking performances and staging.Read more →

Glad I was able to see it before it closes at the Almeida and wishing them all the best of luck for their transfer!Read more →

A spare production that is as brave as it is stunning. Paul Mescal is a real surprise as a totally exceptional Stanley whilst Patsy Ferran established her place as possibly the most talented actress of her generation. The use of the accompanying percussion really focuses the attention and at times enhances the violent outbursts. The ending is more violent than most productions but tragic and moving. Unmissable.Read more →
