Little Lupin Gets a Big Review


Imagine the nerves when, on just the second show at the Bristol Old Vic, Lyn Gardner turns up at my ticket booth. I'm very pleased to say that despite one of the performers being unable to walk due to injury and having had to rework 90% of the show in just one week we got ourselves a rather fetching 3 star review which appeared not only online but in the printed paper too.

What is more she described me as having 'the camp enthusiasm of a fanged Bruce Forsyth.'

The way the piece has developed in the subsequent 11 shows makes me think that it's probably a four star bit of work by now. Who knows where it will go next, there have been plenty of enquiries and there is already a Without Walls tour planned next summer for the street theatre version of the show. Just two more shows and a late night get out today. Onwards.

  • on holiday and therefore off-line for the next week...
  • @andytfield is this what you mean? For me context is the world around and outside the work: its time & place.
  • @andytfield Yes critics should be looking at the work's meaning & the artist's intent rather than just the machinery which carries it.
  • @Actionherolive elevate those legs and let the blood rush back down.
  • @hannahnicklin anything at all by Grant Morrison which you haven't read yet: The Invisibles, The Filth, Seaguy, Seven Soldiers of Victory
