It is deeply affecting . . . This is popular ensemble theatre in traditions stretching from Moliere to Meyerhold and beyond: vibrant, entertaining and meaningful.

Observer on Deborah McAndrew's "An August Bank Holiday Lark"

McAndrew's lyrical, beautifully constructed drama captures the wanderlust of a generation for whom a patriotic war seems fair exchange for a life of parochial tradition.

Guardian on Deborah McAndrew's "An August Bank Holiday Lark"

Warm-hearted, poignant drama ... pays tribute to the long-dead in more than words

Daily Telegraph on Deborah McAndrew's "An August Bank Holiday Lark"

Se alle

McAndrew delineates a host of characters with dexterity and tenderness, an ear for dialect and much delightful humour.

The Times on Deborah McAndrew's "An August Bank Holiday Lark"

Themes [of war] evocatively addressed ... a deeply moving spectacle helping us peer back into the lost world

Independent on Deborah McAndrew's "An August Bank Holiday Lark"

Nikolai Gogol’s biting satire on the corruption in Tsarist Russian public life makes an effortless translation to a small modern day Pennine hill town … this campy, brassy update is very funny and very relevant … a touch of Yorkshire Noir

Independent on Deborah McAndrew's adapatation of "A Government Inspector"

His uniform is picturesque; a hat with triple plume Doublet, cape, and sword - worn like a peacock’s tail. From the eyebrows up, he’s all feathers From the neck down, it’s buckle and swash - But squeezed between is a nose – a nose... A modest poet such as I must fail entirely To describe this gross, immodest, monstrous nose. Cyrano de Bergerac, a brilliant poet and swordsman, is deeply in love with his brilliant and beautiful cousin Roxane. Each day of his life is lived only for her – every poem he writes, every duel he fights. But, despite his dash and his daring, Cyrano is afraid of revealing his true feelings, certain she will never love him in return. For who could love a man with such an enormous nose? Award-winning playwright Deborah McAndrew has adapted Edmond Rostand's original 1897 play of unrequited love set in the golden age of musketeers. This version of Cyrano de Bergerac, for 13 actors, received its world premiere at the New Vic Theatre, Newcastle, on 3 February 2017 as part of a national tour, produced by Northern Broadsides and the New Vic Theatre.

An adaptation by award-winning playwright Deborah McAndrew of Edmond Rostand's 1897 play of unrequited love set in the golden age of musketeers
Deborah McAndrew is a true wordsmith and this version of the 1897 play, often written in rhyme, bears all of McAndrew's linguistic trademarks in terms of wit, puns and wordplay
The Modern Plays series is world famous for containing the work of many of the finest contemporary playwrights. Established in 1959 with the publication of Shelagh Delaney's A Taste of Honey, it remains a series synonymous with the very best in new writing for the stage. Today it features over 1000 plays and continues to grow alongside the staging of new work.
