Studio Theatre, mac

"An astonishing drilled company of nearly 80 youngsters takes the shocks and outrageousness of Mary O'Malley's comedy in its bubbly stride. Liz Light's production served up lunacy en masse with a precision born of rib-tickling timing. The nuns range from great calm to histrionic apoplexy - Cressida Gaffney, Jess Southwood and Merlyn Rice are a wonderful sisterhood of sisters. There are sterling performances from the cast but perhaps above all the unflagging unity of the chorus and the classroom girls stamps an indelible mark on the memory." Evening Mail


 

A strangely exhilarating experience as well as a subtle exploration of a personality under siege. (Adult Child/Dead Child)
