Muswell Hill - White Bear Theatre Reviews
Two Shed's original production of Muswell Hill was first performed at the White Bear Theatre, London in August 2014.
'An impressive cast handles the almost erratic pace of this play with practiced ease, negotiating the operatic highs and lows with killer timing...the intimacy of the venue only amplifies the power of Betts' writing'
The Stage ★★★★
'Roger Mortimer and Deborah Edgington keep the tension on a knife edge and the show feels cool and dangerous...the writing is fierce and the acting bang on' Time Out ★★★★
'Engagingly performed, impressively directed...a slick and entertaining example of a contemporary drama...The performances and direction are smooth, naturalistic and feel spontaneous. The humour is sharp, cynical and well delivered...a witty and entertaining play' Bargain Theatreland
'A surprising, almost hauntingly realistic depiction of modern middle-class life, with the intimate seating adding to the impression that we, as an audience personally know the characters...a very worthwhile watch'
