West End Review: December 2009

WEST END REVIEW

Mark Shenton (Sunday Express) and his guests David Benedict (Variety), Charles Spencer (Daily Telegraph) and Matt Wolf (International Herald Tribune) discuss the latest West End and off-West End openings: Red (Donmar Warehouse), The Misanthrope (Comedy Theatre), Rope (Almeida), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (Novello) and Sweet Charity (Menier Chocolate Factory). Recorded at the V&A.

We really haven’t had a theatrical event like this in London in quite a while – where the player is the thing and not the play.
