Thoughts on The Draytons Arms Showcase of Fragments, Dreams and Fairy Tales Featuring Alida Pantone and Matthew McFetridge


30 January 2019

Sunday and Monday gave audiences the chance to see Fragments, Dreams and Fairy Tales at The Draytons Arms the writing-led theatre featuring work by Kieron Barry, Lorenzo Fantini, Kai Henderson, Martin Jago, Andrew Neil, Lydia Parker and Kyra Williams.

The excellent plays span on subjects from ‘waiting room to death’ like the humorous & tragic “Cosmic Minestrone” with a great cast seeing a wonderfully shrewd Alida Pantone and Matthew McFetridge or “And They All Lived” with witty Samantha Wayne and amusing Janine Ridge with the good direction by Brian Astbury, to more difficult matters such as Pedophilia in “Prove” with an impressive Josh Brostoff.

 

 

Dropped in the lives of a multitude of characters and situations, the audience is entertained and brought to reflect, as the smile carries the cringe of the pain for what’s not settled and never will be. “Fragments” does what any good ensemble of plays should do: makes you to want to see more plays and see more of actors of the calibre of Andrew Hallett and Alexander McConnell on the West End.
