&#8220;where they fall short of gaining the much sought-after title of Ultimate Student Play, is in forgetting that student theatre is also supposed to be a bit crap, whereas this production was anything but.&#8221; Alexander Du Sautoy 
&#8220;why on earth am I giving this play four stars? Because it was awesome. The ideas  of performance and the way it can function in everyday life, are ones that are  dealt with here in a completely unique way.&#8221; David Ralf

Rent 
Review by Rory Pelsue
Rent is about the challenge of creating art and relationships while living with AIDS. Rent is also about the challenge of creating art and relationships despite one’s bourgeois upbringing. Adam Baghdadi’s production highlights the latter element of Jonathan Larson’s musical over the former. This is perhaps not ...]]></description>

Tuesday 1st &#8211; Saturday 5th June; 9.30pm
&#8220;writer Tom Garton’s ‘big idea’ was not lost among the witticisms and the actors achieved what had been demanded of them in rehearsal: a balance between playing their lines for laughs and bringing across the subtleties of their characters.&#8221; Edlyn Livesey 
&#8220;The interplay between the very different characters is particularly funny, but possibly the funniest moments of all come when we get insights into their private minds, such as watching Jacob have trouble drafting a love letter to his stripper.&#8221; Francesca Wade

Monday 24th &#8211; Wednesday 26th May, 6.30p.m.
&#8220;The production had many lovely details – the colour co-ordinating of the lovers  was simple but elegant – yet as a whole it seemed to lack an over-arching  vision.&#8221; Rachel Alban 
&#8220;This was a brilliant performance; polished and nearly perfect. Please please go! It would be a travesty to miss this one!&#8221; Kimberley Lord

Tuesday 18th &#8211; Saturday 22nd May; 7.30pm

There is an emergency Saturday matinee performance of Turn Again  Lane for 2.30 today (Saturday). If you were turned away on Friday or don&#8217;t have a booking  for Saturday evening, THIS IS LITERALLY YOUR LAST CHANCE. Email turnagainlane@gmail.com for tickets.

&#8220;The success of this play therefore, is that it holds such a high resolution mirror to the audience, they can&#8217;t help but laugh themselves silly at the resulting image.&#8221; Roland McFall 
&#8220;Richard O’Brien, writer and director of Turn Again Lane, is fast becoming ...]]></description>

Wednesday 12th &#8211; Saturday 15th May
&#8220;All the minutiae of staging, scenery, and accents succeeded in creating a dramatic scene of the utmost realism.&#8221; Eluned Gramich 
&#8220;From the gigantic barn doors to the huge list of ‘thank yous’ on the back of the programme, you can tell Barbarian Productions have given this play their all and it certainly pays off.&#8221; Charlotte Mulliner

		<description><![CDATA[Written, rehearsed and performed in the space of 24 hours, this is New Writing at its most exciting. Olivia Reilly, the OTR&#8217;s New Writing Co-ordinator, went along to meetings, rehearsals, and the one and only performance to get an insight into the mechanics of this fascinating idea.
The first meeting: &#8220;Just like that tutorial essay, it could be a flash of brilliance or all fall apart, but without a doubt it promises excitement, proves guts, and demands attention. It should have us all on the edge of our seats.&#8221; Olivia Reilly

Wednesday 5th May &#8211; Saturday 8th May, 7.30p.m.
&#8220;The Odyssey was charming, entertaining, and inventive &#8212; clearly the product of hard work from all its members &#8212; and steers Homer’s classic through narrow straits to an applaudable success.&#8221; Justin Tackett 
&#8220;The tone was light, and often genuinely funny, but the actors, good at getting laughs, were less convincing in moments of tragedy.&#8221; Rebecca Whiteley

&#8220;You&#8217;ll be amused, you&#8217;ll spend much of the time smiling, but the genuine chuckles are few.&#8221; Benjamin Bluestone 
&#8220;Throughout the 75-minute evening, the performers seemed to be continually asking the audience “Do you like me?” The result was consistently charming if not consistently funny.&#8221; Rory Pelsue

Monday 26th April &#8211; Saturday 1st May, 7.30p.m.
&#8220;All the actors give convincing performances, as might be expected of a seasoned cast, and in particular the range of Harvey’s facial expressions and the exuberance of Kay made an impression. This and a script where hardly a word was wasted made the play what it is – a great comedy with surprising depth.&#8221; Jonathan Edwards
