Review of the play The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
I would definitely recommend everyone to watch it because the storyline itself was gripping and for this to be acted out live was an amazing privilege to watch. The lighting and sound effects just added to the brilliance of this play. If you wanted a fab night out I would recommend this play to you as it has also taught me a lot too. I have learnt that most of the audience's attention is mainly grasped by the technical effects so this area is key in the play. These effects are also significant when creating the mood and atmosphere of the setting which helps the audience connect with the play and characters. Overall the actors and backstage crew definitely deserve a lot of credit for the wonderful play!

Review of the play An Inspector Calls
Overall it was a brilliant play which I would recommend to everyone because the play really vividly captured the intense moments and brought this to life. Throughout the play, I was on the edge of my seat as the play grew more and more intense. I enjoyed every bit of the play and it was definitely one of my best experiences yet.
