 London theatre listings Cressida the play on stage in London's West End Albery theatre
For the Royal National Theatre his work includes Ghetto, The Wind in the Willows, The Madness of George III which he also directed as a film, Carousel and The Cripple of Inishmaan.
The appeal of Cressida lies in its romantic, convincing evocation of theatre politics and the boys' acting and cross-dressing life.
There are marvellous passages in which cynicism suddenly gives way to the thrill of the theatre, and beyond the excellent jokes lies real depth of feeling.
