Title: Apparently Alec Newman ('04 Barnabas)...
Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on July 23, 2010, 06:28:50 PM

...has a new play entitled Danton's Death running in London through October 14 at the National Theatre.

Here's one review that cites his performance:

Danton's Death: Laughing in the face of terror (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/reviews/article-1296926/Dantons-Death-Laughing-face-terror.html?ito=feeds-newsxml)

and reviewed by a critic with the first name of Quentin. How appropriate.  [ghost_wink]

And a site featuring differing parts of reviews:

REVIEW ROUNDUP: Toby Stephens, Elliot Levey, et al. Open in Michael Grandage-Directed Danton's Death (http://www.theatermania.com/london/news/07-2010/review-roundup-toby-stephens-elliot-levey-et-al-op_29101.html)

Thanks, MB!  Hmm, not sure I would want to sit through this if not for Newman.

Hmmm - it doesn't look like his character is having a good day.  [b003]
