This is one of those productions that was so good I should have seen it a second time while I had a chance. I desperately hoped they'd revive it somewhere else in London - there must have been a space, not necessarily a theatre, which would have been ideal for it, but it never happened.
I bought a standing ticket so was in the thick of it as the stage moved around us so we were up close and personal with it all. I'd completely forgotten about it until I spotted the cast recording in the cupboard - I must dig that out and reacquaint myself with it.
