soldiers and Franz has been painting multi-coloured animals;

postcards? Find out in this, Platform 4's second show after

TWO WAY
MIRROR THEATRE COMPANY presents
RESERVOIR
DOGS
So Two Way
Mirror decide to stage THE Movie of the 90's and they phone
Miramax in the States to try and get permission. And the guy
on the phone says 'fine, no problem, good luck'. So with
Quentin Tarantino's own blessing - for 'twas the man himself
- we now encounter The Dogs for real, feared and afraid,
disturbingly live, on stage and potentially in your face.
This production keeps faith scene by scene with the original
script, but the play unfolds chronologically and not, as in
the movie, in flashback. But BE WARNED; Act Two starts with
what has to the scariest 30 seconds you've ever experienced
in the theatre, so, if you are of a nervous disposition,
STAY AWAY.
WARNING:
Strong language and disturbing imagery. Not suitable for
under 16's.
