The Woods

 

The Woods

by David Mamet at Southwark Playhouse

Sweet, sexy and savage in turn, distilled into a taut 90 minutes...performed with a commitment above and beyond the call of duty.
— The Daily Express

The production does not feel static even though its three acts comprise little more than conversations on the porch, with occasional interludes of physicality, artfully orchestrated here.
— The Guardian

A well-mounted revival directed by Russell Bolam...Bolam captures the danger and menace that seem to lie in Mamet’s myth-making and this toxic relationship.
— British Theatre Guide

The show is best enjoyed, I think, with a significant other...there would be much to talk about after seeing this engaging and enigmatic production.
