Andrew Hislop receives rave review in Macbeth

Andrew Hislop has received fantastic reviews in his performance within Merely Theatre’s version of Macbeth. Check out what was said about Andrew from Mind The Blog:

It also does an excellent job with the Porter scene – part of the play that I’ve not really understood the point of until this year, thanks also to the National Theatre and RSC versions. For the most part, Merely’s production is quite serious & dramatic, so this scene provides a comic break in proceedings, which really plays to the company’s strengths. Andrew Hislop takes on this role with great assertiveness (you try controlling an audience that’s almost entirely made up of teenagers on a school trip!) and is terrific entertainment value.

RD North’s Maddie Wakeling has been cast in the recently announced production of Small Histories by Out of Kilter Theatre.

The work is about six generations of women; their lives spanning 100 years from the final months of World War One to the present; and – through a weaving together of monologue, dialogue and songs – we are given glimpses into brief episodes of these women’s lives; episodes of joy, sorrow, love, loss and memory that articulate the ‘small histories’ of ordinary people.

A ‘scratch performance’ of the work is to take place at Touchstones, Rochdale on 16th November, 2018 at 7:30pm.

Well done Maddie, this is great news! Break a leg!
