by Matthew Lopez
seen at the Noel Coward Theatre on 31 October 2018
This great play has received a well-deserved West End transfer after its sell-out run at the Young Vic earlier in the year. With its original cast and design intact, it remains my highlight for theatre-going this year, despite some strong competition.

A second viewing by no means disappointed: on the contrary, it was an opportunity to discern more clearly the skill with which Matthew Lopez has constructed his play, and to watch a great company of actors perform it. The emotional intensity of the experience was if anything even stronger.
