Roots and Look Back in Anger certainly good plays. Will they both be ‘dated’? Or will they get a new life? Answers on a postcard.. I think all of Osborne’s plays are in themselves not that relevant any more however several of them provide very good leading roles for actors so casting is the key to have a chance of succeeding with them.

Christmas '22 was Streetcar, so not necessarily. Wasn't Tammy Faye right before that? I guess that isn't considered Christmas, but it was the festive season. That finished 3rd December, so I guess it depends how festive you were feeling in October and November! 😂

Judging by the lack of a signficant queue, these have not set the world alight. Usual seats booked.

Booked for Alma Mater as I will see anything with Lia Williams. Nothing else is calling me at the moment.

Alma Mater is written by an Aussie and based in a college - I'm guessing the college is not in Australia, although the subject is international so could presumably relocate with any production. On first glance it looks a lot like a telling of Kathleen Stock vs. Sussex Uni. Or, in more popular terms, Jo Rowling vs. gender fluidity. I guess the attraction here is to hear the arguments out loud and developed/challenged, rather than on screen or in print, or in a 20-second clip. Unherd > Stock > unherd.com/author/kathleen-stock/ << fwiw, I like her unfiltered, earnest manner. There used to be a lot of people like that.
