Review: THE CANE at the Royal Court
By Phil Willmott Saturday, December 15 2018, 07:18
THE CANE, my friend Mark Ravenhill’s first major play in 10 years, is about teachers.
Nicola Walker plays Anna, now an adviser for academy schools visiting her ex-teacher mother (Maggie Steed) and father (Alan Armstrong) as his hopes of a retirement celebration are thwarted by the revelation that he used to cane pupils back when it was legal.
