Chris Hannan
What Shadows
★★★☆☆ Puzzling:
There is a delicate romanticism to What Shadows that is at odds with its subject matter. An excellent central performance and high production values cannot ever quite overcome some problematic elements.

A time to take risks:

The Iliad
★★★★☆ Compelling:
Epic in scope, huge in sweep and utterly human, The Iliad at the Lyceum is a powerful production.
The Iliad – junior review
★★★★☆ A Masterpiece.
Junior Review by Rocky Williams:
The adaptation of Homer’s classic 24 book poem by Chris Hannan is a great piece of theatre that powerfully tells the story of The Iliad.
Review – Crime and Punishment
Absorbing and intelligent, the new adaptation of Crime and Punishment by Chris Hannan and directed by Dominic Hill makes for powerful entertainment at the Lyceum.
