Muswell Hill - White Bear Theatre Reviews ★★★★

Two Shed's original production of Muswell Hill was first performed
​at the White Bear Theatre, London - August 2014.

           ★★★★    The Stage 
           "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." 

          ★★★★    Ham and High 
          "A uniformly well executed piece...the synergy of  
           incompatibility is explored with devastating
           impact...makes good of the ticket price and more'."

            ★★★★    Time Out 
           "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."

            ★★★★    Gay Times
            "This is a gimmick-free piece of theatre with
              something to say, and it isn't afraid to say so with
              guts....A tasty dish, full of fibre - with plenty of
​             meat to devour and digest."  

            "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."   
​            What's On Stage

            "A heavenly production...a first-rate revival."        
​             Reviewsgate

             "An engrossing and absorbing drama...excellent
              and eminently watchable."
​              Stage Review

            "An assured and often funny revival...Roger Mortimer and Deborah Edgington's production is confident and funny
             enough to pull it off."
