All My Sons Reviews

Heather Philpot from Cambridge, UK

ALL MY SONS BY ARTHUR MILLER

Absolutely outstanding performances from David Suchet and Zoe Wanamaker.Suchet conveyed the depletion of paternal strength and authority very convincingly. Wanamaker was vulnerable throughout, a true victim of the consequences of Joe Keller's fears and guilt. Gripping and believable characterisations that compelled the audience to share in the discomfort of personal tragedy. Supporting actors each gave commendable performances too. The set design was excellent realism inside a showcase box. It pulled the visual focus right into the centre of the garden and hence,into the heart of the family.For those who understand the true nature of drama this is an experience not to be missed. A modern greek tragedy.

AMAZING

This was my first time at a London theatre and I found the whole experience amazing. I am a fan of David Suchet from Poirot and couldn't believe how different his acting was in this play. I was captivated from the very start. This is definitely worth going to see, in fact I would love to go and see it again.

SIMPLY BRILLIANT!

We attended the play last night, 24th June; we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. All the actors were superb, the lighting, ambiance and stage setting were of a high standard. I have never visited the Apollo before and I just loved the small, cosy feel of it. Lovely Victorian decoration with a very good view of the stage. the acoustics were good so that the actors voices were easily heard. Well done to all involved. Julie G xxx

THE MAGIC OF THEATRE

I saw the play on Saturday evening and as the crescendo built up to all the revelations in the second half, everyone in the audience was absolutely spellbound and on the edge of their seats. I must particularly thank Zoe Wanamaker for helping me describe the pain a mother feels for a lost son, flesh of her flesh... The growing guttural howl of desperation that grew from an underground whisper to the loudest groan, straight from the stomach made my hair stand on ends and completely stirred all the emotions I feel every time my sons are hurt or in danger of being hurt. David Suchet was also in my opinion, outstanding in depicting the father figure so aptly. Mr Miller could only smile upon such a wonderfully realistic and powerful performance. Thank you for casting your spell on me and for a wonderful evening

OVERWHELMING!

I wanted to stand and clap and cheer, but was too emotionally drained to do so. An incredible performance from all the cast; I don't know how David Suchet and Zoe Wannamaker in particular have the emotional strength to perform for evenings and matinees - they must be totally drained. I went home to reread the play, but had to abandon it because it interfered with the live experience. Production, scenery - everything - was marvellous.I would recommend this play to anyone who enjoys the best of British theatre.

FANTASTIC!

I was in London for an Audition and had a few hours to kill afterwards and while on my way to see the Lion King i came across 'All my Sons'. I am a huge fan of David Suchet and i couldn't resist it. I had to go see it, i didn't care how much a seat cost me as long as i got to see it and i wasn't disappointed! David Suchet and Zoe Wanamaker were born for these roles in my eyes. I was sucked in from the moment the first scene started right till the end. Their fellow actors were instrumental in their roles and complimented both Suchet and Wanamaker greatly! A must see for any theatre enthusiast or Actor and something i will go and see again if I'm in London again when its on! An inspiration for an aspiring actor like myself if ever i'd seen one :D Well done to all! Harry Haylings

AMAZING!

I was there on Monday 16th August with a friend and we enjoyed every second of it. Just sheer brilliance. The whole cast especially David Suchet and Zoe Wanamaker made it a thrilling experience to watch. We would most certainly recommend it.
