REVIEW from the BLACKMORE VALE MAGAZINE
(Dorset) 25 November 2011
THIS PLAY “HAS LEGS”
Acknowledgements – Blackmore Vale Magazine and Gay Pirrie-Wier
Our first hot-off-the-press discount delights of 2012 include a stage adaptation of the great children’s classic Swallows and Amazons and Love in Idleness from Terence Rattigan, published together with Less Than Kind, an earlier version of the play which was never staged during Rattigan’s lifetime
And then there’s Thrill Me! – The Leopold & Loeb Story, a critically acclaimed two-character musical drama which explores the unusual love story behind the “crime of the century”
We’ve also Sign of the Times, a comedy two-hander from Tim Firth, and from StageStars Recordings, the Vocal & Backing Tracks of Urinetown, one of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years
