Type de série: Original LondonThéâtre: Noel Coward Theatre (Londres - Angleterre) Durée : 3 semaines Nombre : 29 représentationsPremière Preview : InconnuPremière : Tuesday 24 March 1987Dernière : Saturday 18 April 1987Mise en scène : Paul Kerryson • Roger Haines • Chorégraphie : Producteur : Avec : Martin Smith (Marvin), Simon Green (Whizzer), Barry James (Mendel), Paddy Navin (Trina), Damien Walker/James Trickett (Jason)Commentaires : Originally part of a series of off-Broadway shows - In Trousers (1985), March of the Falsettos (1981) and Falsettoland (1990) - the works would later be amalgamated into an on-Broadway production “Falsettos” (1992) and would win a Tony Award for the book and score. This London production of the middle show was first staged at the Manchester Library Theatre in January 1986 and was originally planned and directed by Howard Lloyd-Lewis, the dynamic and rising artistic director at Manchester Library, who sadly died at the age of 42 from a heart attack as rehearsals began. The London audiences dismissed this virtually sung-through show as an “over-rated Broadway cult”, while New Yorkers considered it to be a masterly story of gay life in modern
times.

"There’s no getting round the awkward fact, though, that Crawford’s best days as a stage-actor are now behind him...Worth a look, then, but not queuing round the block to see." Dominic Cavendish for The Telegraph
"There's no danger of mistaking The Go-Between for a noisy blockbuster but that doesn't signify any shortage of ambition in this enthralling, beautifully textured chamber-musical version of the L P Hartley novel about a boy's loss of innocence during a country house visit in the scorchingly hot summer of 1900." Paul Taylor for The Independent
"It is all done with taste and style. But although the text is shot through with references to Icarus, the story never quite flies because we cannot escape its catastrophic effect on the adult Leo. The novel, as so often, proves a foreign country; they do things differently there." Michael Billington for The Guardian
"The story begins slowly, in silence. You want to scream ‘oh get ON with it!’ Richard Taylor’s music, delivered by an on-stage piano, is frustratingly plinkety-plonk. It sounds like a pastiche of Stephen Sondheim. Slowly, however, this fruit ripens. A surfeit of recitative yields to tight, a capella harmonies." Quentin Letts for The Daily Mail
"... there are things to admire in Roger Haines’s production. Michael Crawford is affecting as the grown-up Leo Colston, a husk of a man whose life has been dominated by the letter-carrying events of three hot summer weeks half a century before." Fiona Mountford for The Evening Standard
