Bound @ the Southwark Playhouse - take 2

This is the 2nd time me and Mrs T have seen Bound. The 1st was an intense encounter in a small performance space to a full house at the Edinburgh Fringe. We loved it. Since then I have been following the Bear Trap production company online as it has toured the country doing one night stands over the last 2 years.

Tonight we saw them at the grungy Southwark Playhouse Vault venue sadly to an almost empty house. The show was good but that original impact could not be repeated. The same actors with only modest changes to the 80 minute show made one realise that acting is just as much a trade as an art.

Well worth a visit. They will be touring the UK again after their run at the Playhouse has finished. 6/10 on second viewing.
