Summer & Smoke – Review

Summer & Smoke, the 20th Century play by Tennessee Williams is lovingly bought to the stage by The Company. Set in Mississippi cleverly brings you to the streets of the town, with colour doorways and windows. Simple set, that moves around the stage is used well to create different areas of the town. All set is moved by the cast, during cleverly choreographed walks to mark the passage of time. The cast always turning like the hands of the clock. Besides one minor hiccough with the set this works incredibly well with the cast able to shift the set around nice and easily. One issue with it did result in a show stop which the cast handled incredibly successfully.
