Every Good Boy Deserves Favour: more great reviews
The Sunday Observer and Sunday Telegraph both gave great reviews for the play yesterday.
There are some puzzling decisions. Is the casting of a woman to play a young boy an attempt to add a further layer of uncertainty to the play? There are also some grand ones. Joseph Millson seems to become greyer and more gaunt by the minute. Toby Jones, who did wonderful obsessive stage shows long before he turned into a big-screen asset as Truman Capote and Karl Rove, is quietly startling as the triangle-wielder. He looks as entirely convinced by his parallel universe as he did when, years ago, he created his monologue about a garden shed. Which is as it should be; this is a world in which only the mad can be sure of themselves. Observer
The 4 star Sunday Telegraph review, describing the play as appalingly clever, only appears to be in the dead tree version and the e-paper. Thanks to Lorna, I added the scan of it to the galleries.
Joseph Millson as the dissident Alexander travels the chilling road from sanguine resistance to wheelchair bound despair.
