Papatango Playwriting Festival at the Finborough

The Papatango Playwriting Festival is currently being held at the Finborough Theatre, including FOXFINDER, directed by Blanche McIntyre and designed by James Perkins, and THROUGH THE NIGHT by Matt Morrison.

Exceptionally directed... a superlative achievement from all involved.  [The script is] evocatively realised by director Blanche McIntyre... Simply put, this show is little short of flawless... one can only hope that future directors have the same tact.  A truly terrific production, and an absolute must-see.
Whatsonstage *****

Director Blanche McIntyre follows last year’s dazzling Finborough revival of Accolade with another first-rate production.  She keeps the staging stark and simple, and makes chilling use of prolonged silences.
Guardian ****

Blanche McIntyre’s production is grippingly atmospheric, dark and tense and confident enough to revel in the sort of stillness and silence that ratchet up the tension.
Evening Standard ****

Blanche McIntyre's sparse, bleak production never lets the tension drop.
Telegraph ****

McIntyre’s atmospheric production... Rich, rare and deeply unsettling.
Time Out **** Critics’ Choice

Blanche McIntyre's fabulous production... this is a bold and often brilliant stab at something new.
Times

Blanche McIntyre's riveting, stripped-down production... McIntyre has an impressive command of visuals as well as text and actors, harnessing the length of the stage to build a mood of paranoia with characters looming out of darkness.
Variety

FOXFINDER is currently playing until 23rd December, and THROUGH THE NIGHT will play from 6th to 11th December.

Tickets for both shows can be bought here.
