The
Sussex Express has a nice review of 'Sleuth' posted on their website. The final paragraphs read as follows:
"He (MacCorkindale) played snobbish Andrew Wyke,
the aristocratic author of Agatha Christie-style
manor house mysteries.
Michael Praed started out rather more sheepishly as
Milo Tindle, the upstart son of an Italian immigrant.
He arrives at the home of Wyke which sees the start
of what begins as a playful game between rivals which
soon turns sinister in this classic thriller."
I don't feel a
bit guilty about quoting entire paragraphs from the review in full here. Take a look at my description for the play this week:
"Milo Tindle (Michael Praed), the upstart son of an
Italian immigrant, arrives at the home of snobbish
Andrew Wyke (Simon MacCorkindale), the aristocratic
author of Agatha Christie-style manor house mysteries.
What begins as a playful game between rivals turns
sinister in this classic thriller. Joe Harmston
directs the Bill Kenwright production."
Now THAT is flattery!
