REVIEW: Peter Pan, Mercury Theatre Colchester ✭✭✭✭
You should never forget your visit to Neverland, and I promise you an unforgettable trip with this talented company.

Woodley is a warm and engaging actor, and shares his experience of love openly, with symbolic props and subtext conveyed to us, the class. Never patronizing, the show is honest, funny and beautifully poignant.
Black Mountain is another strong production from Paines Plough. The dialogue whips along in this well acted production.
The Shape of the Pain’s strength is its use of flickering lights, disorienting video effects, buzzing and throbbing sounds and a general assault on the senses to try to convey Rachel’s experiences where words are inadequate.
The beauty of Bombastic Declaration of Love is the effect it has on the audience and what Julie manages to elicit from them.
With such a strong line-up, it should come as no surprise that it is a perfect delight, full of feelgood humour and hilarious performances.
What a story. Eve will be one of the most honest accounts of change and transgression that you will see on the Fringe.
Grippingly directed by Valentina Ceschi, it effectively shifts tone and perspective and, by the end, leaves us questioning how much we really want to know about the authors we love.
