Extremism by Anders Lustgarten & Directed by Will McGinley

‘A strong cast give an exciting, believable performance that grips your attention from the moment it begins’.

British Theatre Guide

‘Extremism’, is a thoughtful and well-articulated play which succeeds in presenting the grey area of such a deeply polarising topic’

Edinburgh Fringe Reviews

‘The cast is made up of eleven talented young people who perfectly set the scene with cruel jibes and conflicting personalities. Elena Georghiou as Suhayla did a fantastic job in a demanding role, balancing Suhayla’s strength and determination with her vulnerability and delivering a strong performance. Similarly, Adam Savva as Chris had superb comic timing and an impressive stage presence. Holly Butcher and Lemonitsa Petris as Rachel and Melina respectively conveyed painful ignorance with such conviction, that I felt myself become frustrated.

Extremism certainly sparks emotional reactions and topical debate, pushing the boundaries of comfort almost too far in some cases. A Stellar performance given by all involved.’
