The second half of this was fantastic and well worth the ticket price. It will stay with me, especially as I didn’t know the story and wasn’t sure what would happen. However, I felt the first half was pedestrian with some wooden performances. Perhaps they were saving themselves for the big finish, but there didn’t seem to be much chemistry between th characters and I felt I was watching a reasonable play rather than getting sucked into something that felt real and believable. Perhaps the actors were saving themselves for the big finish. I would love to know what they felt of yesterdays performance. An off day?
