A MASTERFUL SHOW

The Play’s the Thing is an ambitious work, skillfully done. There cannot be too many performers who can make such a show work, but Laird has found one of the ones that can, Mark Lockyer is truly an excellent choice to bring her vision to life.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

‘A sharply crafted bare-bones solo take on Hamlet - director Fiona Laird and heroic solo cast member Mark Lockyer are to be congratulated for presenting the Bard’s best in such audience-pleasing style. Laird deserves every accolade for wielding the surgeon’s knife so effectively. It is excellent.’
