Saw one of the final performances and yes, I would not call it a musical. A beautifully told story about broken lives and shattered dreams, the burden of the past so heavy on your shoulder that even when you break free you don’t know what to do with this freedom anymore. Both leads are sympathetic even full of imperfections and to be honest you can’t call them the nicest people you meet yet the love they carry though the years cannot fail to move you.. Anya has a wonderful voice that speaks to your very soul and I’d certainly play the piano duo ‘I Do’ on repeat if they let me.. Yet another performance by Luke Thallon that make my heart ache big time. His acting is always so nuanced and so intricate, it’s a pleasure to watch and take it all in. Had a lovely chat afterward talking Shakespeare and Leopoldstadt, it’s always an inspiration to listen to someone so openly passionate about what they do. Can’t wait for that RSC version of Hamlet, even more so now!
