Till The Stars Come Down – Monday 14th July 2025

It’s the 16th of February 2026 at the time of writing, so I’m writing this about 7 months after having seen the play.

The play was good! But like pretty much all plays these days, it wasn’t exactly ‘feel good’ material, although it was very humorous. The ending was kind of abrupt too.

That said, the characters were brilliantly fleshed out, and the whole thing definitely had an authenticity about it. I also appreciated the fact that one of the main characters was Polish because Polish people have been a part of British society for decades, yet we rarely ever see them represented!

I also enjoyed the way the dramas and backstories were slowly revealed as the story unfolded; proof of great writing.

What stood out was just how genuine it all felt; it’s not based on a true story, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was, because it just rang true.

It was very entertaining, but it didn’t really make me question any aspects of society, or resonate me with me on a personal level. A mirror wasn’t held up to me, shall we say, and I feel great plays have that quality; they make you look at yourself and ask questions.

Still, it was a very good play, and absolutely worth watching!
