★★★☆☆ Cunning exploration

August: Osage County
★★★☆☆ Brave attempt
Some excellent performances and high production values give The Grads’ production of August: Osage County interest and a degree of merit, but overall it can only be seen as a qualified success.
Review – Richard III
★★☆☆☆ Macabre:
Vile and unrepentant, Richard Godden’s take on Richard III is an uncompromising one in this fascinating production of from the Grads – at St Brides until Saturday.
Review – Six Degrees of Separation
★★★★☆ Multilayered
Responsible for popularising the idea that every person in the world is just six connections from every other, John Guare’s Six Degrees of Separation is a play about greed and envy; about what happens when those six connections are reduced to just one.
