STUNNING!

Our brand new production of A RAISIN IN THE SUN is having an unprecedented audience reaction.
Monday’s Press Night saw a standing ovation (UNHEARD OF on a Press Night!) and audiences have been unanimous in their appreciation of this show.
“Most moving performance I've ever seen. Still reeling.” Audience member via Twitter
“Never been on such a roller coaster of emotions from a performance, including TV, film and theatre. Cried and raged at Walter, Ruth said so much by not saying anything at all and Lena …so regal, so humble, so proud. Love the dancing, particularly the African bits. Kept seeing new tucked away corners of simple, clever set design. Cried at the interval, by the time Walter redeemed himself I was in bits! Can I really say thank you for reducing me to a snivelling wreck? Course I can. Well done to all.”
Saw "Raisin" yesterday. Absolutely great, one of the best things at the Exchange for a while. Don't miss it.

'Just seen RAISIN IN THE SUN what a great night and a very powerfull play - was surprised the author was the inspiration for the song young gifted and black'
I saw 'A Raisin in the Sun' last night and it's certainly up there with the finest offerings the Exchange has given us. Thank you all for a superb evening!!!
I went to see, 'A Raisin in the Sun' not knowing anything about it, but just because I thought, 'why not'. And, I was so glad I did. It was superb. Not only a great play, but the performances were all excellent without exception. The set, props and the fact that you become so drawn into the lives of these people, makes... ...this a night you will not forget. Thank you
Saw it last Friday and it was stunning! Standing ovation for Starletta, too! So good that I want to see it again!
