This was definitely a day for creative students Before The Lockdown:
So, I'll be very lazy and repeat some of what I said then: "there's a lot to like about Our Country's Good ... It's a play about the redemptive power of art, in particular of theatre,
and the injustice and immorality of an impersonal legal system that
fails to account for social context." Just like when I saw it in 2014, I came away from this amateur production with much the same feeling, that for me "it's just not a very exciting play."
Despite having a much smaller budget and thus a significantly less impressive set and lacking the polish of a professional production this presentation did have a few advantages. Most important was that you are much closer to the action which allows the audience to have a much more immediate relationship with the characters. Although that can sometimes expose the weaknesses of an actor's portrayal it does also mean that they don't have to worry about having to project all the way to the back of the circle seats and can concentrate on the little details that are often more important.
Despite being an 'amateur' production the BSU Theatre Society put on well designed shows with a capable cast consisting of aspiring actors and those with just an interest in being part of a creative ensemble. This one was no exception so the fact that I've not yet seen a production of this work that had quite the spark I'm looking for is no reflection on the performances here.
For the last of the 2018 Directors Cuts season at the Wardrobe Theatre the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School treat us to the visceral, violent, achingly lustful prose of Tender Napalm.
A Man and a Woman occupy a bed and express their love for each other in fantastical ways though their words also describe brutal violence. But then ... is that not what the most erotic "dirty talk" often is?
Do we not say that love and hate are two sides of the same coin? And what if you were actually living in a viciously cruel world, would such brutal fantasy be the only way to safeguard your love?
This intoxicating and erotic fantasy was a great way to finish off this year's excellent Directors' Cuts season.

The Bath Spa University Theatre Society was at the Mission Theatre in Bath to put on Our Country's Good. If you've been reading the older pages on this Blog you may recall that I saw a professional production of this well-regarded play back in 2014.
