Dial M for Murder (West Yorkshire Playhouse, 30th September 2009)

This was a beautiful production playing with boundaries between cinema and theatre.  The plot was very straight forward but carefully worked out, which managed to build up tension throughout the two parts.  I felt that we didn’t particularly like any of the characters but we wanted justice to be done in the end.  What I liked most about this production was the overall aesthetic and feel of the production.  The lovely juxtaposition of reds, greys and blacks really worked well to create the atmosphere of a murder mystery and to set this work as a period piece.
