We went on a bit of a Strindberg fest that February – this the first of two Strinds in one month. the second was Easter at The Pit:
My log says that we thought The Dance Of Death “superb” and why not? John Neville, Gemma Jones, Cheryl Fergison and Anthony O’Donnell makes for a seriosuly good cast.
Here is the Theatricalia entry for this production.
A contemporaneous review or two:
- Paul Taylor in The Independent – pretty keen – here.
- Variety Magazine – less impressed by Peter Sormare’s production – here.
