Love and Money is not an easy play. It's challenging on many levels, with moments that will make you laugh, others that will make you think (remember interest rates and negative equity in the late 80s anyone?), swiftly followed by others that will make you gasp and wish you could unhear something, or unsee the image in your head. But with stellar performances, minimal staging, powerfully disorientating sound and lighting, this is a play to have you gripped - and you will hang on every word, because you never know what's coming next. Not got a ticket yet? Three more chances - treat yourself and support the frankly fabulous cast. Yet again, very proud to be a member of SLT.
Caroline Beckett
Don’t miss Love and Money this week. Every scene is a gem, and (although it’s not always clear from the start exactly how) they all fit together to create a marvellous tapestry of physics, philosophy, shopping, stabbing, financial services and the desecration of funerary monuments. Excellent performances throughout too, with neat and powerful direction from Guy Jones and Roisin Deady. Get tickets.
Bob Callender
Do get down to the theatre this week for Love and Money. Having just seen the dress, I can assure you it'll be worth your while. It's very much an actors' show, and the cast turn in some cracking performances. It's pretty dark, but also very funny. A really nicely written examination of the relationship between love and money, and how far we'd go to get them. Don't miss out.
Simon Gleisner
Another cracking night at SLT last night watching Love and Money. Wonderful individual performances, (what else), a script that keeps you engaged, sometimes in very disturbing ways, and a masterclass on how to keep the whole audience engaged while “in the round”.
