The Dybbuk - Kings Head Theatre

When we think of Jewish culture, we think of the holocaust. What we have here is a director that has chosen to try and challenge that view not by wasting words walking about it - but instead by giving us a wonderful piece of jewish folklore. With strong story telling and a solid cast this is well worth a look in. David Meyer (whom some may remember as one of the knife throwing twins from Octopusy all those years ago) dominated the 2nd half completely with his mastery of both the stage and the story. If you are looking for a good performance, you don't need to go on a treasure hunt to find it. It awaits you at the Kings Head. I must put in a special mention for Thomas Morrison - for his role as the befuddled suitor. He only has but a few lines in the entire piece to establish the character, but establish it he does - and with such skill. We really feel such empathy for the poor boy after very little time.



A rare oportunity to see be given a jewish story.
