A funny, polished, satisfying theatrical offering.
Perth Reviews
I wish I could report that like so many others I was riveted by this much anticipated production. Gatz simply wore me out.
This is a lovingly told story of family life in the East end of London, a lower income suburb, traditionally home to a large population of Jewish refugees, many from Eastern Europe.
This performance was littered with clever literary references but there is no need to be an 1810 English literary aficionado to appreciate the humour. It is a brilliantly performed, delightfully silly soufflé.
A once-off evening in the glorious St George’s Cathedral.
There is no question about the talents of this small ensemble, their voices and choral work are excellent and the writing is cleverly witty and extremely funny.
It’s easy to imagine self-confessed grammar nerd Fitzhardinge, as the odd one out in the popular girls group at school.
Ferguson was in excellent form as he basically gave the audience a tour through his life and times.
