Please report back on this as it looks as though I’m not going to get a chance to catch it unless it extends or transfers
Oh just claims of nepotism from a few bloggers. She did win a Channel 4 writing award so I guess she obviously has some credentials but I suppose the feeling is it would look better if it wasn’t playing at the theatre she does PR for.
Ha. Doesn’t everyone who works for a theatre actually want to be in, direct or write a play though?
that sounds right up my street and hadn’t heard of it- thanks for the heads up.
I plan to go next Friday (26th), get you a ticket?
off to work now, but could do it later
Got a Network Friday Rush ticket!!! Wednesday matinee here I come!
Is that true? Ffs
Phew!
Is John worth seeing in the evening after my Network show y’all reckon?
I’m seeing it tonight, will report back. All I know is its over 3 hours and very slow, like The Flick from the same playwright (which I loved)
I’ll probably just take a punt on it for £20 tbh, reviews seem positive (albeit from a couple of years ago)
I saw The Birthday Party last night which is pretty rad - I wasn’t familiar with it all but Stephen Mangan, Toby Jones and Zoë Wanamaker are all brilliant.
just got tickets. exciting!
saw it got a guardian write-up, after you mentioned. didnae read though, didn’t want spoilers
I loved it, like The Flick it requires a lot of patience but is very rewarding for it. Also the set is amazing.
Top tip: don’t get up straight away in the second interval. Can’t say any more without spoiling.
Nice one, missed out on the £20 ones for the same day as Network but may well jump onboard for another day anyway
Aah left at the interval I’m afraid, thought it was pretty schlocky and contrived with some VERY ropey acting. Safely under: not for me.
Went to see a very disturbing and hilarious show called Laid at Soho Theatre the previous week, about a lady who kept giving birth to eggs, and had to decide whether to eat or raise them each time.
I have a few others booked up. Some immersive thing called Town Hotel next weekend, and a bunch of shows at the Barbican over the next few months, which I keep utilising my membership for: 300 el x 50 el x 30 el; Pluto; Smile Upon Us, Lord; Lady Eats Apple.
This makes me feel better about not catching it
Network was really good, THAT scene was absolutely sensational though. Goosebumps from it. Might try for tickets again tbh.
More Hamilton tickets on sale on Monday at noon, FYI
I got tickets to Hamilton!
