Curtain call for Keith Waterhouse & Willis Hall’s 'Billy Liar' at The Courtyard Theatre! Our final year BA (Hons) Acting students, led by Emma Taylor, delivered an unforgettable performance. Huge congratulations to all involved! 🎭✨

We are also delighted that the production was so warmly received by audiences, with fantastic reviews.

Some of the reviews from The Audience Club:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - 'An absolute delight to see this production, with lots of laughter and social satire providing great entertainment. All of the cast were brilliant in their roles and show great potential for their future careers. Excellent direction, stagecraft, and lighting....'
⭐⭐⭐⭐ - 'The production stays faithful to the original narrative. Lead actor David
Samuel pours great dedication into a highly challenging character, a young man trapped by his own escalating lies. The visual staging is a clear strength. The era-appropriate costumes, authentic props & mid-century set successfully build the claustrophobic domestic world of the Fisher family. It is inherently sad, yet deeply humorous Wonderful cast!'

Don’t miss our next theatre production, Alan Ayckbourn’s 'Way Upstream', directed by Julia Carey, opening tomorrow (Tuesday 19th May) at The Courtyard Theatre.
