LONDON ZOO WINS BEST PRODUCTION AND BEST ENSEMBLE

October 24th 2021

London Zoo

                                                                                   ★★★★★

Director Samantha Pears allows the play to flow by having small on-set scene changes, that are clearly marked by red lights and a ticking sound. The actors are alive in these changes and continue to interact, continuing to engage the audience. The play uses a number of scene defining props; to keep these so tidy and their tracks faultless takes a large amount of organisation and skill from the director.
