Cold War by Conor Mcpherson
An epic love story spanning the decades and breadth of Europe at its most divided, adapted from the Academy Award-nominated film. Premiered at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 2023.'One of the best plays of 2023.. superlatively resonant... a small but mighty piece... simply exquisite'
* iNews *'Bewitching... a lush tender play with joy as well as trauma... The script by Conor McPherson stays close to Paweł Pawlikowski's original and finds a truly theatrical, darkly witty character of its own'
* The Times *'A triumph'
* Telegraph *'An exquisitely sad love story, brilliantly translated to the stage'
* Evening Standard *'Beautiful... a swooning adaptation... like a sad, smokey late-night cabaret performance in a faded old bar: there's a glamour to it but it's intimate, warm and nocturnal... it really is a lovely show'
* Time Out *'Gloriously melancholic... an almost tangible sense of pain and half-concealed emotion... an unusual and original show, one that haunts you long after you leave the theatre, its essential sadness sweetened by tinges of hope and a deep humanity'
* WhatsOnStage *'Compelling and bittersweet... a fine adaptation... a gift of no ordinary kind'
* Arts Desk *'Brilliant. I need to see it again'
* British Theatre Guide *Conor McPherson's musical Girl from the North Country, featuring songs by Bob Dylan, has been a hit around the world, including in the West End and on Broadway, where it won multiple Olivier and Tony Awards. His other plays include The Weir, Shining City, The Seafarer and The Night Alive.
