Review: The Father by Pangdemonium!

Same same but different – Pangdemonium’s The Father is a terrifying take on dementia as seen through one man’s eyes.  Florian Zeller’s The Father is a difficult play to watch. Not necessarily because it’s complicated (although it’ll certain leave you confused and terrified by the end), but because it’s a play that deals with the inevitable – growing old, and the very real possibility of encountering … Continue reading Review: The Father by Pangdemonium!

Preview: The Curious Incident of The Dog In The Night Time by The National Theatre (presented by SRT)

I remember when I first caught The Curious Incident of The Dog In The Night-Time on West End. Having heard so much praise heaped on about it (and having read Mark Haddon’s original novel), I just had to see the biggest theatrical phenomenon yet. And sure enough, I wasn’t disappointed when I finally got the chance to a little over a year ago. So it really … Continue reading Preview: The Curious Incident of The Dog In The Night Time by The National Theatre (presented by SRT)

Review: Chicken dir. Joe Stephenson

Adapted from Freddie Machin’s play of the same name, Chicken marks a stunning debut for director Joe Stephenson and a powerful start into the realm of indie film. Making the leap in medium from stage to screen can be awkward in the hands of a lesser director, but Stephenson imbues his film with such a keen lust for life and a loving, pastoral beauty that one can … Continue reading Review: Chicken dir.
