| Description |
The concept of the foreigner searching for love and telling his story via an interpreter is great in itself. It was this that drew my interest in going to see this comedy piece. However, the script needs further development and to be pulled into some unified sense of a complete story. Steve Sheehan perfectly embodies the character of Stevl and in that sense his performance is accomplished. Emma Beech performs well as his straight-faced interpreter. |
