After reading some rave reviews this morning, I’m pleased to report back that this was outstanding! The best thing I’ve seen at Jermyn Street and again cements Roy Williams as one of my favourite playwrights. The whole cast are pitch perfect and the space is brilliantly utilised - I found myself completely captivated. I really hope the show has a further life as the play feels bigger than Jermyn St and would benefit from a livelier crowd. Still, this is probably the best thing I’ve seen this year and really urge everyone to go

Jermyn Street Theatre website shows it as completely sold out now. There were just a few seats yesterday across the run, all gone now. Future life is certain. Where do you think it would work theoracle ?

Reading the reviews this sounds like a good fit for my local theatre, Stratford East, a venue which is mentioned in the Guardian piece because of its current production of The Big Life. Roy Williams certainly has a longstanding relationship with the Theatre Royal. But I'm sure other theatres would also be appropriate.

Stratford East would be lovely but I suppose they'll be programming their own work rather than host transfers. I'd love to see this show in the Arts perhaps or the Ambassadors, so somewhere bigger that still provides intimacy
