Review: BOYS FROM THE BLACKSTUFF, Liverpool's Royal Court
Sat in Liverpool’s Royal Court Theatre last night, I watched what can only be described as one of the most magnificent theatre shows I have ever seen in my life. Boys From The Blackstuff brings Alan Bleasdale’s 1982 TV series to the stage in a phenomenal adaptation by Sherwood writer James Graham.
BWW Review: BLOOD KNOT, Orange Tree Theatre
Family ties are complicated things. Those we are connected to through blood are often those we love the most, but who we can also treat the most poorly. Athol Fugard's visceral 1961 play, Blood Knot, is a story about brotherhood and how you view your family, set in the brutal world of apartheid.
