Review: ABIGAIL'S PARTY, Rose Theatre

Guest Blog: Costume and Set Designer Anna Yates on Sustainability and Shag-Pile Carpet in ABIGAIL'S PARTY
Unlike what seems like the entire population of the UK, I didn’t know anything about Abigail’s Party when I began working on it with Jack Bradfield in May this year. I was, however, a big fan of Mike Leigh’s films because of his eccentric yet totally believable characters. I love his use of banal and repressed dialogue and there’s such an incredible combination of brutality and compassion in his work.
