Making Noise Quietly Review 2012

What the popular press had to say...

"Peter Gill's excellent production cunningly unifies the three plays by getting the actors to criss-cross the stage between each one. The performances are first-rate."
Michael Billington for The Guardian

"Making Noise Quietly, first staged in 1986 and now receiving a beautifully judged revival by Peter Gill, grips throughout with its empathy and craftsmanship...Gill directs with superb precision and delicacy, on spare evocative designs by Paul Wills, and this haunting trilogy lodges itself in the mind and heart far more deeply than many noisier, flashier plays."
Charles Spencer for the Daily Telegraph

"Though bleak in its subject matter, Robert Holman's influential triptych is surprisingly heartening ."
Ian Shuttleworth for Financial Times

"Compelling performances do justice to the emotional honesty of the writing."
Henry Hitchings for Evening Standard
