Gentlemen

Arcola Theatre - Studio 2 - October 2023

Freshers’ term. Greg has taken to university like a duck to water. Kasper is struggling to fit in.

Summoned to a mediation session with Kasper and the college welfare officer to discuss an accusation of plagiarism, Greg deftly argues his way out of trouble. But when allegations evolve into something altogether more damaging, how long can Greg remain untouchable?

Reviews

  • "Will Alder's effective lighting design and Jamie Lu's sound design never became intrusive, subtlety enhancing the play throughout"

  • "Will Alder's lighting design is able to go wild in a nightclub scene and a dream sequence..."

  • "It's subtly lit with light streaming in from a window and lamps giving tonal effects. In the surprise and contrasting opening to act two lighting designer Will Alder and sound designer Jamie Lu, whose outside protest noises work convincingly, have a chance for a little more excess in their creativity"
