Review: NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812, Donmar Warehouse
by Debbie Gilpin - Dec 17, 2024

“Nothing is trivial, and nothing is important, it’s all the same.' Conflict rages around the world, and yet normal life (with its requisite anxieties) is expected to go on regardless. This is the situation in which Tolstoy’s War and Peace characters find themselves; the Napoleonic Wars continue, but high society and family dramas will never rest.

Review: THE GRAPES OF WRATH, National Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Aug 1, 2024

The piece is heavy in topic and method, but Carrie Cracknell’s quiet direction smooths out the nearly three hours of running time. It’s by any means not an easy-breezy show to experience, but it sinks into your soul in a way that only an epic does. The problem is that it’s so, so slow.

Review: PORTIA COUGHLAN, Almeida Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Oct 18, 2023

Marina Carr’s award-winning play returns to London directed by Carrie Cracknell and starring Conversations with Friends starlet Alison Oliver (who trod the same boards earlier this year in Women, Beware the Devil). A compelling analysis of toxic dysfunction and female pain, Portia Coughlan is a jarring family drama shackled by tragedy. It propels Oliver into theatre stardom.
