Review: MISS JULIE, Park Theatre

Max Harrison’s production is a beautiful textbook revival that, while leaning into the comic side of the text (translated here by Michael Meyer) accordingly tips into the opposite range of emotional distress. This Miss Julie is funny one second, horrid the immediate next.

Katie Edlred, Freddie Wise, and Adeline Waby Will Lead MISS JULIE at the Park Theatre

Lidless Theatre will return to Park Theatre with Strindberg's masterpiece, Miss Julie, after two sell-out critically-acclaimed runs of Philip Ridley's Leaves of Glass.  

Review: UNION, Arcola Theatre

Union is half love letter to a changing city and half harangue against the soulless destruction of local communities for the benefit of a coffee shop chain. Max Wilkinson offers an abundance of topical matters, slightly overdoing it, and better suited for a longer running time.

Review: LEAVES OF GLASS, Park Theatre

Director Max Harrison takes the play and makes it a contemporary exploration of unaddressed trauma, gaslighting, and complicated family relations with performances that scrape excellence once they settle into themselves.
