In AFTER THE REHEARSAL director Ivo van Hove stages a naturalistic piece of theatre adapted from the film of the same name, focussing on the psychological complexity of Bergman’s story about the aging theatre director Hendrik Vogler (Gijs Scholten van Aschat). Much centres around the women in his life, the late actress Rachel (Marieke Heebink) and her daughter Anna (Gaite Jansen). “The director needs to learn two things, how to listen, and when to shut up”, says Hendrik to the young protégée Anna.

Review: THE REVLON GIRL at THE PARK 90
By Stacey Tyler Tuesday, September 26 2017, 15:21
Having only opened in May 2013, The Park Theatre is a relatively new space, however, since it opened it has had 3 West End and 2 National Theatre transfers as well as 10 national tours, so sets a high precedent for the shows that follow. Expertly written by Neil Anthony Docking, THE REVLON GIRL is a powerful and poignant story, with extreme highs as well as extreme lows this play takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions that the title never could have foretold.

Review: RAMONA TELLS JIM, Bush Theatre
By Stuart King Tuesday, September 26 2017, 12:17
Ramona and Jim meet as teenagers in the Scottish Highlands. He's local, she's on a field trip from Englandshire. They are quirky, nerdy, articulate (in that weirdly teenage kinda way) and physically awkward (again, in that weirdly teenage kinda way)! Also, their hormones are clearly running riot, for it soon becomes apparent that they are immensely attracted to each other.
