The Miser review

The Miser certainly isn't tight-fisted with the laughs.

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 13th March 2017

Review: The Miser at the Garrick Theatre

Hits the contemporary spot: Amelia Forsbrook reviews Sean Foley and Phil Porter's adaptation of Molière.

Amelia Forsbrook, Exeunt Magazine, 13th March 2017

Review: The Miser

'Comedy first, psychological insight later' is Sean Foley's take on The Miser, and indeed his production is fresh, funny and farcical. But maybe his cast can afford to relax a bit more - they're all excellent, after all.

The Miser at the Garrick Theatre review

A delightful feast of non-stop laughter. The two-and-a-half hour running time is not felt at all as every moment has something to offer.

Griff Rhys Jones says Mel Smith "visits" him in dreams

They were the best of friends as well as life-long comedy partners. So it's perhaps not surprising that Griff Rhys Jones claims to have been "visited" by the late Mel Smith in his dreams.

James Draper, The Mirror, 3rd October 2016

Comics with spectacular ha-ha homes

There are turrets and timbers, thatched roofs, private moorings and even an island. One home even has a secret garage, another boasts a 400-year-old walled garden. Yes, the titans of the comedy world have done rather nicely out of making people laugh.
