On The Twentieth Century directed by Carol Metcalfe
What the critics said ... “Once in a while a marvel happens. At some fringe theatre an inspired director mounts a production that for sheer exuberance and deft, joyful staging would grace the stage of any theatre in the land” Jeremy Kingston, The Times “It is the best musical of the year so far and doesn’t deserve to shuffle off to Buffalo at the end of its short run. Memo to enterprising West End producers all aboard!” Bill Hagerty, News of the World “Carol Metcalfe’s ravishing revamp ... she furnishes Cy Coleman’s story with a high-calibre cast, and a set and costumes (both by Bridget Kimak) more sumptuous than I’ve previously seen on the Fringe” Nick Curtis, The Evening Standard “This revival is a revelation, what emerges is a briskly satirical musical farce” Sheridan Morley, International Herald Tribune “And the best till last ... a brilliant revival” Sheridan Morley, The Spectator “Stylish set, with great costumes and superb direction, it seems more like a scaled-down West End show than fringe” Sarah Butler, This Is London “a great star performance in Kathryn Evans’ Lily ... she is simply superb” Michael Darvell, What's On “a production which offers a couple of hours of more or less unbroken pleasure” John Gross, The Sunday Telegraph “It would be criminal if such a happy experience should be limited to a short run in a small theatre. It demands a long run in a small theatre” Antony Thorncroft, The Financial Times |
