Wonderful play, great acting, realistic to the time, not to be missed. The County Court is the ideal place. However the carpet under the seats in the front is very bedraggled and needs renewing. We booked the library restaurant but were told t arrive at 5.00pm but dinner doesn’t start until 6.00pm. This left us little time ro eat. We were not told that this is a steak restaurant and would not have booked had we known.

Excellent and different night out.

We were very fortunate that our seating area had been closed an we were upgraded to the Jury. The show is very engaging and being a fan of murder mysteries I found myself constantly aware of all of the dialogue in order to catch the suspect out. The Jury decide the suspects fate so I'm assuming that there are a number of endings. On the whole it was a very enjoyable experience topped by the exquisite setting.
