The brilliant director and choreographer Melissa Rain Anderson, and the design teams of Stages, have created a kaleidoscope of a set, subject to seamless changes, with characters entering and exiting from all directions, often hurtling in from aisles on wheeled chairs.
Brilliant direction, a galloping pace, and powerful acting make an award-winning musical thoroughly enjoyable while being deeply moving, in a triumphant production not to be missed.
