Recenzii

Max Stafford-Clark and Out of Joint's previous ventures with writer Robin Soans have produced thought-provoking and passionate blasts of political theatre
While at times dark and difficult, ultimately the play is a joyful, hopeful experience... Crouch Touch Pause Engage is a grudge match between denial and acceptance, between the individual and the community, in which, in the end, to try is to triumph.
It boasts robust performances and speaks with potent immediacy about isolation, deception, candour and compassion.
It's a modest kind of heroism that's depicted in Robin Soans's latest documentary - drama and somehow all the more glorious for that.
