Deservedly excellent reviews for Katherine Moar's debut play at Jermyn Street. A cast of British stage stalwarts, including Alan Cox, David Yelland, Julius D'Silva and Forbes Mason are joined by the younger Archie Blackhouse and Daniel Boyd in this gripping and strangely humorous true story, set at the end of the Second World War and the dawn of the atomic era. Small and intimate in scale it tackles big subjects and does so remarkably well. An unexpected delight.

Just come out of today's matinee. Liked it a lot. In a way it's similar to the recent Oyster Problem at the same venue, but this time it's physicists rather than writers who spend the play batting ideas back and forth. This has the additional factor of the backbiting between those who were Party Men and those who kept themselves morally pure (and the reasons why each did what they did). Thoroughly absorbing, the 90 minutes flew past. It's beautifully played by all involved. Highly recommended.

On tour. Coming to Bath Theatre Royal in mid-April. I've still been unable to find any tour details so know only of the Guildford dates (10 - 14 October) and have just booked one of the Yvonne Arnaud's bargain advance tix. If only all the successful productions from Jermyn St Theatre would tour, as the prices can be far more affordable elsewhere, though as Tom Littler has now moved on, it's too soon to say whether JST will continue to maintain his high standard & interesting e of plays. |

The Bath tour date was back in April, I think. Weird that they only visited one other venue after the London run. |

It's at the Cambridge Arts Theatre in September before that, as well, I see: www.cambridgeartstheatre.com/whats-on/farm-hall |
