Shouts and Murmurs - February 27, 2024
Was everything better in 2012? No, but theatre criticism was. Plus: the reviews of An Enemy Of The People, Hadestown and more; an interview with Ian McKellen; and some other stuff worth reading.
Hello, and welcome to Shouts And Murmurs, a weekly email for paid supporters of The Crush Bar, written by me, Fergus Morgan.
Every week, I round up the best theatre writing elsewhere, from reviews, to interviews, to features, to opinions, as well as any other fun or interesting theatre-related stuff I come across.
This week, there is a great piece from Natasha Tripney looking back to 2012, the extraordinary show Three Kingdoms, and the critical discourse it provoked; review round-ups of An Enemy Of The People, Hadestown, Escaped Alone and a load more shows; plus interviews with Ryan Calais Cameron, Ian McKellen and others, and a few more links to click.
