On Friday I went to see The Pandora Effect / Frozen Sea at the REP and without getting into a review I was completely blown away by it. Not being a drama aficionado I’ve been burnt a few times at the theatre (most recently at Stratford for the RSC’s Tempest which was terrible) but this was one of the best things I’ve ever seen in any medium, from Gary Carter’s script (dense and complex on one level while still being accessible and flowing) to the actors who really acted with the subtlest of emotional shifts.
Blinding stuff, and if that doesn’t convince you then how about free tickets for the final performance on Saturday evening at 7.45pm?
I probably shouldn’t do this but what the hell. If you ring the box office on 0121 236 4455 and quote FANTASTIC FIERCE OFFER you can book up to six tickets for free. If they ask where your heard say you’re an “Audiences Central Subscriber” but there shouldn’t be any problems.
If there are problems then it’s £10 and well worth every penny.
