Review of REDLANDS by Charlotte Jones at Chichester Festival Theatre (follow link to the review). The play is directed by Justin Audibert, Chichester’s new artistic director. We thought it a triumph. It’s a play with lots of live music rather than a musical, and follows the tale of the 1967 Mick Jagger & Keith Richards drugs bust. However, Jones weaves the story of their lawyer, Michael Havers and his family as an intertwined parallel. In all of it, perhaps the most important character is Marianne Faithfull, brilliantly peortrayed by Erma McDaid. There are songs, dance and Justin Talbot (on his debut) channels Mick Jagger on stage superbly. We both gave it five stars.
