Last night I saw a simply wonderful show. GLASS ROOTS,…Extraordinary powerful play by Alexander Matthews, glittering performances. All round. In particular 2 youths of danger & gorgeousness, Mitchell Fisher & Sam Rix. If you can grab the last two performances today at 2.30 and 7.30 p.m.. Any casting agent who misses them will kill themselves in future years. Anyone who values theatre should be there.

Glass Roots… really excellent. I was on a high wire all the time waiting for the punch up… great play.
Bruce Kent
‘admired for its dialogue’… ’imaginative and energetically written’… ’A well-wrought piece.’
