The Skin Game by John Galsworthy, Orange Tree Theatre, 7 April 2007

Sam Walters really had got himself locked into the early 20th Century by this time. Frankly, we didn’t think this Galsworthy piece had aged very well. Add to that Sam’s strict orthodoxy about not cutting text, it was quite a long evening at the theatre.

Well acted and directed, we stuck it out for both halves although we did consider making a break for it at half time.
