2007

2007 is upon us. This is going to be quite a year! I wish LOVESONGS had been better. It features one of my favourite actors, Cillian Murphy. I left the theatre after 23 minutes, the second fastest I have ever felt the need to escape from a theatre in my life. A necessary recourse to preserve my fast dwindling sanity. Something must have gone drastically wrong for three such excellent actors to be acting so badly. I know there are four actors in it but one of them was being played by the understudy and – I cannot – bring myself – to speak about it. It took six seconds for my jaw to drop open – and 23 minutes to decide there was nothing else to do but run. This week should see a review from The Guardian for KENSUKE’S KINGDOM and The Times for DANNY THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD. Let’s hope they are kinder than me!
