Praise and comedy
Friday night was Press Night for Uncle Vanya at the Rose Theatre. Here are the reviews I've found so far - all very pleasing, although slightly grudging praise from the Evening Standard
Guardian: Kingston's bright new theatre gets off to a sparkling start
Telegraph: A perfect illusion of life itself .
Financial Times: Evening of excellent characterisations
Times (no title, apart from 'Uncle Vanya', but four stars awarded)
Evening Standard: Passion subdued on the wastes
Last night the theatre was sold out for the first Comedy Store night, and I had a good laugh, as they say. Stand-up works really well in this space, even with over 900 in the audience.
The Comedy Store will be returning on the last Sunday of every month - but be warned, don't place your cushion near the front of the pit unless you relish ritual humiliation.
