Dr Strangelove review
Kubrick's humour doesn't always detonate as it should in Armando Iannucci's version.
Rachel Halliburton, The Arts Desk, 30th October 2024Dr Strangelove review
Armando Iannucci's Steve Coogan-starring stage adaptation of Stanley Kubrick's Cold War satire is funny but frothy.
Andrzej Lukowski, Time Out, 30th October 2024Dr Strangelove review
As director, Foley also lets the actors spend too much time seated at the back of the stage behind a table, sometimes making sight lines difficult, but the cast is clearly having a great time, and for the most part, thanks to Bechtler's vision and Coogan's performance, the audience is too.
Maryam Philpott, The Reviews Hub, 30th October 2024Dr Strangelove review
Ultimately, this production gains in power and confidence as it goes, the broader farce of the stage giving way to a conclusion even more confronting of its audience than the film to which it is indebted.
Thomas Messner, The Upcoming, 30th October 2024Dr Strangelove review
The bullseye topicalities for today are part of the dark pleasure of this glorious production.
