“Vernon God Little” at The Young Vic

Having not read the book, this wasn’t what I was expecting at all. Fantastic physical theatre style production, constantly kinetic, vulgar, weird and often brilliant. A psychotic musical. Except, except… the characters are very simplistic. It was yet another play that yet again sneared and jeered at Americans. That said, the whole thing worked, and the staging was brilliant. Mark Lockyer, who played various characters, was fantastic.

Review in The Guardian.
