If you are in the Manchester area, I really cannot recommend this production enough. Perhaps a little long, but nevertheless, there are some incredible performances at the heart of Buffong's direction which are complemented by Ellen Cairn's meticulous design. Starletta DuPois as mother Lena Younger shines, her performance filled with stoicism, stubbornness and heartbreak. A great play, served well by this production.
If you are under the age of 26, there are 50 free tickets available every Friday night, or, £4 seats for a Monday night performance. The production is running until February 20th, click here to be taken to the Royal Exchange website.
