The Seagull

18/04/2013 by Peter Viney

Review of the Headlong / Nuffield theatre production of The Seagull added. This is a modern version of Chekhov’s play, written by John Donnelly, more a rethink than a translation, on a minimal set in modern dress. See the review … I felt the negatives outweighed the positives.

Once

31/03/2013 by Peter Viney

Review of Once at the Phoenix Theatre, London. This stage adaptation of the cult Irish film surpasses the original. A truly first-rate and original musical. It always feels intimate and REAL.

This updates Charles Dickens’ The Old Curiosity Shop to modern times, where Little Nell’s grandpa runs a secondhand vinyl shop, a location I know only too well.

Fay Hield & The Hurricane Party

27/03/2013 by Peter Viney

Review of Fay Hield & The Hurricane Party at The Point Theatre, Eastleigh added. A superb concert, and the review has long rambling asides about my experience of English folk, and my sudden conversion to the current crop of young artists in the traditional English folk field.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream – Bristol Old Vic / Handspring 2013

24/03/2013 by Peter Viney

Review added of the Bristol Old Vic / Handspring Puppet Theatre production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream See link. There are now several Dream reviews on this site. This is a fascinating and original concept that aroused ire in some reviewers. When it’s good it’s very very good. But it doesn’t all work.
