BWW Review: THE SLAVES OF SOLITUDE, Hampstead Theatre

We're back in the world of ration books, blackouts and spam fritters, as Nicholas Wright delves into the home front via his adaptation of Patrick Hamilton's 1947 novel. Though there's a certain period chintz about Jonathan Kent's production, darker undercurrents make this a more complex proposition than it first appears.

THE SLAVES OF SOLITUDE Begins Tonight at the Hampstead Theatre

Hampstead Theatre presents the world premiere of Nicholas Wright's The Slaves of Solitude, directed by Jonathan Kent. Adapted from Patrick Hamilton's much-loved story, this new play weaves a fascinating blend of dark hilarity and melancholy in a story about an improbable heroine in wartime Britain.
