‘Some great moments between characters’: GROTTY – Bunker Theatre

In London theatre, Opinion, Plays, Reviews by Laura Kressly14th May 2018Leave a Comment

There are some great moments between characters, and some laugh-out-loud dialogue – Izzy Tennyson certainly has a way with words. The cast is strong and characters engaging, but as a whole, Grotty lacks purpose and shape.

A look around at audience reactions is enough to confirm that Grotty does what it sets out to do: bring an often overlooked subculture into the spotlight in a way that’s both educational and inclusive.

‘Tries to say so much, but ultimately says very little’: GROTTY – Bunker Theatre ★★

In London theatre, Opinion, Plays, Reviews by Jonathan Baz7th May 2018Leave a Comment

Grotty is a dark, grimy, and vivid exploration of the subcultures of London’s lesbian scene. The end result is a play about nothing in particular. Much like its lead character, Grotty tries to say so much but ultimately, says very little.
