Review: WARHEADS at Park Theatre
By Stuart King Monday, August 19 2019, 09:33
WARHEADS styles itself a punchy urban drama, based as it is, on a true story. But is there room for yet another deconstruction of PTSD and the trials and tribulations of a soldier returning from the horrors of war? In this case, the short answer is, yes (with minor reservations).

Until the end of August, the Harold Pinter theatre plays host to a stage adaptation of Louis de Bernières’ multi-award winning, World War II Greek Island romance, CAPTAIN CORELLI’S MANDOLIN and aside from a few minor gripes, it’s a beautifully realised affair.

A collaboration between writer Ben Weatherill and director Tim Hoare, JELLYFISH started life at the Bush Theatre in 2018 and has now been given a well-deserved additional short-run at the Dorfman, on the Southbank.
