Julian Eaves reviews Aspects Of Love by Andrew Lloyd, Charles Hart and Don Black which has transferred to the Southwark Playhouse London from the Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester.
Following an acclaimed season at Manchester’s Hope Mill Theatre, Aspects Of Love is to transfer to London’s Southwark Playhouse in January 2019.
The show’s score is one that you want – you need – to revisit again and again. Till and his collaborators are such major talents that there isn’t a single line, phrase or bar that doesn’t repay repeated hearing. Quite honestly, it’s a breath-taking achievement.
The children sitting around me were having a ball. Engaged, entertained and thoroughly enjoying themselves and that’s brilliant.
Don’t come to Gods and Monsters expecting a re-telling of the making of Frankenstein. It’s far more than that. This is a well-told tale full of humour, emotion and well constructed characters.
