Dr Strangelove review

Steve Coogan works hard - but this is cheap and silly.

Fiona Mountford, i Newspaper, 30th October 2024

Dr 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 2024

Dr 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.

Dr 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 2024

Dr Strangelove review

The bullseye topicalities for today are part of the dark pleasure of this glorious production.

Dr Strangelove review

Steve Coogan triumphs in Kubrick's Cold War satire.

Neil Norman, The Daily Express, 30th October 2024

Dr Strangelove review

Part broad farce, part skewering satire, a little bit of 'Allo 'Allo, some Airplane, some Partridge.

Giles Broadbent, The Spy In The Stalls, 30th October 2024

Dr Strangelove review

Steve Coogan displays impeccable comic timing.

Dave Fargnoli, The Stage, 30th October 2024

Dr Strangelove review

OK, so it's not the biting The Thick Of It-styled political satire we wanted but as far as light entertainment goes, it's pretty good.

Jim Keaveney, The Arts Dispatch, 30th October 2024

Dr Strangelove review

Is putting Kubrick's iconic satire on stage an act of MADness?

Miranda Collinge, Esquire, 30th October 2024
