30. The Cup | Sarah Kane’s Crave, Chichester Festival Theatre

Welcome back to the 30th episode of The Cup which is our a weekly (give or take, TBD, these are unprecedented times) performing arts talk show presented by Cup of Hemlock Theatre. The theatres may be closed, but art finds a way to survive! For the time being on this podcast we are rereleasing our past reviews, interviews, roundtables, and duet reviews in remastered audio only versions so you can take your CoH content on the go! For our 30th episode we continue to branch out our review series beyond the Stratford Festival and onto other productions. In this Duet Review Ryan Borochovitz and Aisling “Aly” Murphy discussed the Chichester Festival Theatre’s current production of Sarah Kane’s Crave, directed by Tinuke Craig, starring Erin Doherty, Alfred Enoch, Wendy Kweh, and Jonathan Slinger.

CONTENT WARNING: Kane’s play deals heavily with abuse, mental health, and suicide. As a result, this review, likewise, speaks directly to these themes.
