Mill on the Floss - George Eliot/ Helen Edmundson

17th-20th July

Hexagon Theatre, mac

"A cast so large they cannot all get on stage, tackle an emotionally charged adaptation of George Eliot's classic with all the skill of seasoned performers. Lydia Burke, Alice Naylor and Gabrielle Shakeshaft create tension as they play Maggie at three different stages of her life: Lydia Burke handling the tempestuous Maggie at her youngest age in splendid fashion. Oliver Harvey is strong as the dominant brother, Paul Brotherton is on good form as one of Maggies's suitors and there is a warm and colourful contribution from Dan Dolan as the father." Evening Mail
