Neville's Island - Duke of York's Theatre


The setting – an (magnificent and convincing) uninhabited island in the Lake District. I especially loved how one of the characters made his stage entrance emerging from the lake; very clever. The situation – 4 men, each with a very distinctive character, on a workplace bonding exercise are shipwrecked. Having only one sausage and a dying mobile phone, disaster is imminent. With a spectacular set, a funny story and four brilliant actors (Adrian Edmondson, Miles Jupp, Neil Morrissey and Robert Webb) bringing it to life, there was nothing I didn’t enjoy about this hilarious about this piece by Tim Firth.

Neville's Island can be seen @ Duke of York's Theatre until 3rd Jan
