If you’ve ever worked on a newspaper, particularly a local newspaper, you’ll want to see Before Bristol, which opened at the Old Red Lion in Islington on Thursday night. (Yes, in competition with the football…)
I had to watch myself while writing the review over on My London Your London, since I kept identifying various of the characters with people with whom I’ve worked.
But even if you aren’t an old hack (meant in the nicest possible way) it is still a solidly entertaining evening – nicely crafted writing and very solid acting.
