After seeing the brand new production of ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’, critical theatre reviewer Phoebe and her fiancé, David, return home in a flurry. Two drinks in and charged with endless opposing opinions, they peel back the layers, pulling the show apart, driven to prove their points. With an impending review deadline looming overhead, Phoebe and David descend further into the unknown. Beneath the wine, the whiskey and effortless wit lay old truths, unspoken sentiments and the gradual withering of stalled potential. With nowhere left to turn, Phoebe and David are forced to come face to face as the lines between the play and their lives become increasingly blurred.

Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
