Harrowing/Funny and well acted
Reviewed on
From booking the tickets to attending the venue everything was made easy. Lots of attendees at the venue to direct you and provided additional information re expectation of nudity/swearing etc.
My husband and I both really enjoyed the film so could relate to the play. It was so well acted and while some audience participation was experienced it was done with good humour and nobody looked offended. There’s was lots of scenes that were funny but some were more of the serious side of drug taking which was a stark reminder of the absolute horror and sadness it can involve. Great to see actors getting a standing ovation too. Not for everyone to see, but so well done 👏🏼
