The Review - THEATRE
Published: 24 April 2008

In the wings

• BATHSHEBA Everdene has a difficult choice to make: should she give her hand in marriage to the faithful but bucolic Gabriel Oak or the dashing, arrogant Sergeant Troy?
Or perhaps the rich, repressed landowner William Boldwood?
John Cooper adapts Thomas Hardy’s classic tale about the complexities of courtship in Far From the Madding Crowd, starting Upstairs at the Gatehouse this week. The ever-impressive Harry Meacher directs.

• DARK secrets spill as the drink flows in Two, Jim Cartwright’s clever two-hander set in a northern pub.
Fourteen characters come to life in an evening of merriment and reminisence that goes terribly awry.
It’s last orders for the feted play at The Courtyard Theatre in Old Street – it runs until the end of the week, so drink up.
