Legacy reader reviews

L20 stalls. This seat is fine in terms of view but has the same problem as every seat in the stalls, at least - the back of the seat is a padded bar that sits against your lower back, so sitting back in your seat isn't really possible.  

One for PJ Harvey completists, I would say, a rather odd play that consists of lots of narration and exposition and dialogue in some sort of stilted 'Victorian' delivery. The songs are mostly dirge like and consist of things like 'London isn't England' and 'London is dirty'. I think she's from the West Country, it shows. But the lighting design is really good. 

The monkey advises checking performance times on your tickets and that performances are happening as scheduled, before travelling.

Monday to Saturday at 7pm (6.30pm on 14th and 28th May and 6th and 13th June 2024)
Wednesday and Saturday at 1pm and 7pm

Runs 3 hours 10 minutes approximately, including one interval.
