Review: MRS PRESIDENT at Charing Cross Theatre
By Stuart King Wednesday, February 5 2025, 08:57
There are occasions in a reviewer’s life, when we are exposed to a nugget of political history which encapsulates sufficient intrigue that we yearn for it to receive the attentions of an accomplished playwright. Such writers can often weave the factual nuggets into an interesting and compelling yarn. The best are brim full of wit, wisdom and relatable characters with stories and opinions which inspire, unnerve, interest and elicit (from those of us with our bums on seats) oodles of empathy, envy, compassion and admiration. Unfortunately John Ransom Phillips’ homage to the feisty and oft maligned Mary Lincoln (wife of President Abraham Lincoln) achieves few of these.
