Jacob Stolworthy, The Independent, 14th November 2023The Pillowman review
It all adds up to a confusing play that for all its highs and lows leave us feeling pretty level.
Karl O'Doherty, The Reviews Hub, 23rd June 2023The Pillowman review
For a show based so heavily on imagination, this retelling lacks the emotional impact it could have achieved.
Victoria Rose, Lost in Theatreland, 23rd June 2023The Pillowman review
The performances are all strong. Lily Allen has the toughest role with all sorts of tonal shifts, having to be variously vulnerable and assertive and much more. What she lacks in range she makes up for in charisma.

Tale of art and suffering is a struggle to sit through.
Clive Davis, The Times, 22nd June 2023The Pillowman review
Suitably sinister but lacks psychological conviction.
Claire Allfree, The Telegraph, 22nd June 2023The Pillowman review
In a workmanlike Lily Allen-starring West End revival, Martin McDonagh's dark 2003 play doesn't quite live up to its own legend.
Time Out, 22nd June 2023The Pillowman review
Lily Allen fails to deliver visceral punch.
