I’ve recently been to a couple of productions and each was superb.
Helène and I went to see Dear England at Scunthorpe Vue cinema.
Neither of us are football fans but this production was more about the thinking behind making a struggling team into a good team. The play went through the ups and downs of players experiences. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
Unfortunately Helène couldn’t make the second event however Lucie next door was keen so we went to Louth to see the Motive and the Cue.
The play is the true story of the rehearsal of Hamlet starring Richard Burton and directed by Sir John Gielgud. Johnny Flynn played Burton and Mark Gatiss was Gielgud. The dynamic was electric with Elizabeth Taylor (Tuppence Middleton) acting as a diplomat to keep the play rehearsals on track.
Superb acting, beautifully written and another wonderful production from National Theatre.
