Review: THE WOMAN IN BLACK at His Majesty's Theatre
THE WOMAN IN BLACK is a minimalist play, with one foreground for the entirety and just two actors.

The plot is good and the acting is superb, and combined with this thriller is put together make this a must see.

Review: WE'LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS, The Mill at Sonning
