Two short plays at The Riverside.
In truth, 25 years later, I remember little about this evening and/or these plays.
Unusual for us to go to the theatre on a Thursday evening, so something must have inspired us to do that. Possibly the secure knowledge that after my Washington trip the week before, Passover at my parent’s place the preceding weekend, and dinner with Anthea and Mitchell arranged for the next day, this would be our only chance to see this production. I’ll write some more about the Washington trip and those other events elsewhere, when the time feels right.
Still, something else must have inspired us to choose this twinning of short plays by writers we hadn’t heard of, with cast and creatives we also hadn’t heard of.
Theatricalia can’t help me with this one.
To the rescue, Mark Cook with this preview in The Guardian.

Also to the rescue, Patrick Marmion in The Standard. This pretty good review, published the very evening we went:
