I did not leave the theatre feeling guilty about my male presence, but I did leave having enjoyed brilliant acting, skilful direction, innovative use of lighting and space and questioning my role within a patriarchal society. I loved Birch’s imaginative attitude to theatre form, the way that the play collapses under the weight of its own angry emotions, and its sharp insights into women’s sexuality, attitudes to relationships and sense of self. With dazzling economy, the playwright crosses a lot of territory and burns her way through all the usual obstacles. On the night that I saw this show, there were moments when the women in the audience whooped with the joy of recognition and delight. At the same time, some of the recurring imagery of the piece — nightingales, bluebells, melons, cheese and dogs — didn’t really make much sense to me, although I loved the way that the play is a compendium that turns into pandemonium.

I try to just scan them, so you know what’s out there. Often a review is heartbreaking either way, if it is negative or positive.

E V Crowe's naturalistic supernatural play examines what the possibilities are for the women in Tommy's family, and questions if it's as easy for everyone to reveal what it is they want.Alice Birch’s production, Revolt. She said. Revolt again., currently on at Melbourne’s Malthouse Theatre, has been staged before as part of the 2014 Midsummer Mischief festival at Royal Court in London. The play was a response to a famous feminist provocation, “well behaved women seldom make history”. The provocation belongs to the historian, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, who also adjudicated the plays to be included in London’s radical season. In 2019, Birch adapted Virginia Woolf's Orlando into German. The adaptation was performed at the Shaubühne and directed by Katie Mitchell. [48] [49] I just don’t think they are for me to read. Maybe that’s a really arrogant thing to say, and maybe ideally it’s a conversation [with reviewers] and you learn things, but I just think I’m still too close to the play to be objective. There’s always the thought that more people will read the review than see or read the play.
