THE FRONT LINE

13/5/09, Shakespeare's Globe

Missed it: stayed at home with heavy cold. Slice of street life play, set in contemporary London, brought back for a second season after very good reviews last year.

D said the first half was scrappy but that it got better in the second. A said it was sloppy. S said it was over the top and not as unmissable as it should have been.

The place was sparsely filled, apparently, perhaps because the weather was poor, it's early in the season and it wasn't Shakespeare. D said one couple (tourists presumably) left soon after it started, perhaps driven away by the stream of F words.
