When Ian Shaw and Joseph Nixon’s play premiered in Edinburgh in 2019, the concept- three people stuck for weeks in a confined space, gnawing on each other’s nerves, battling boredom, and gradually losing their marbles- probably had less resonance than it does now.

Review: THE MIRROR AND THE LIGHT at the Gielgud Theatre
By John Yap Friday, October 8 2021, 16:08
The rich tapestry of British history, especially of the Royal Family, is fertile ground for writers, playwrights and filmmakers to plow.

The first two books, WOLF HALL and BRING UP THE BODIES were best sellers and the subsequent theatre adaptations of both books were equally successful. Now we have the final theatre adaptation of the Trilogy, THE MIRROR AND THE LIGHT. This final theatrical adaptation is a fitting and successful conclusion to the Trilogy.
