Review: IL BARBIÈRE DI SIVIGLIA, Glyndebourne Festival
by Aliya Al-Hassan - May 19, 2025

Review: THE PROMISE, Minerva Theatre, Chichester
by Debbie Gilpin - Jul 30, 2024

'To promise nearly fifty million people truly universal health care - ‘cradle to the grave’ - is crackers.' Despite this quote featuring quite prominently in promotional material, and the poster image showing a pair of midwives, The Promise isn’t wholly about the founding of the NHS. Paul Unwin’s new play instead depicts the rise of Clement Attlee’s Labour Party in the wake of the Second World War, and their attempts to create unity and growth in the years that follow.
