Albion is a slower burn than some of Bartlett's other plays. It is about Englishness and gardens and nostalgia and in that sense a desire, which may or may not be possible, to relive the past. The metaphors will be debated as the themes are many and complex.
When the audience wants to stay at the end and talk about how wonderful this production is, you know that something very special is being seen here at Wilton's Music Hall. First timers and the experienced Othello audience alike, were amazed at the clarity of Richard Twyman's production for Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory, Bristol and English Touring Theatre.
