Brokeback Mountain by Annie Proulx
A heartbreaking tale of an irresistible and hidden love spanning twenty years and its tragic consequences. Based on Annie Proulx's short story, with original songs by Dan Gillespie Sells.'A potent, subtle piece of dramatic alchemy.. a gem of a show'
* Evening Standard *'Beautiful... the play packs a punch... with a herd of achingly lovely country ballads'
* Telegraph *'A finely drawn musical miniature of quiet compulsion... has its own delicate, stirring power'
* The Stage *'Tender and beautiful... like Bob Dylan/Conor McPherson's Girl from the North Country, this is a "play with music", and lightning strikes twice here... a notably superior musical offering'
* iNews *'Stunning... a story fraught with emotion, tenderness, and heart... truly beautiful'
* Broadway World *'An impossibly moving tale for our times... the music has a melancholy beauty that conjures the spirit of freedom and natural glory that is part of Brokeback's story... Robinson's adaptation sticks pretty close to Proulx's language, and honours the taciturn quality of the story'
* WhatsOnStage *'A faithful and loving recreation of Proulx's original story, bringing with it a tenderness that could only be found in live performance... very special indeed'
* Theatre Weekly *'Perfectly pitched and desolately poignant... Ashley Robinson's stage adaptation returns Annie Proulx's short story to a distilled purity... heartbreaking'
* Guardian *'A memorable evening, beautifully judged. Don't miss it'
* British Theatre Guide *'Heartbreaking and incredibly poignant... the most satisfying of theatrical experiences'
* The Upcoming *Ashley Robinson is a Brooklyn-based actor and writer, born and raised in rural South Carolina. Dan Gillespie Sells is best known as lead vocalist and front person for The Feeling, and the composer of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.
