Mark Jagasia has done it again, The Double Act is ★★★★★ comedy gold!
Press night was a star-studded evening! Hear what Damian Lewis, Jane Horrocks and more had to say about this hilarious and timely play.
★★★★★
“A brave and intelligent elegy for a lost England…as thematically rich as it is darkly funny… strong shades of Osborne’s The Entertainer, Sartre’s Huis Clos and the brooding menace of early Pinter, and replete with literary allusions (from Poe to Hamlet) … Highly recommended.”
The Telegraph
★★★★★
“An incredibly witty and fiercely topical dark comedy… keeps the audience on their toes. A masterpiece of dark comedy drama.”
Spy in the Stalls
★★★★★
“A hilarious and horrifying satirical triumph… not only is the script compelling, but director Oscar Pearce has brought it to life as an atmospheric clown show… transports the audience to this sinfully silly night in Saltmouth. ”
