Ring
by Drew Tosh
Theatre 53two, Manchester, 18th-22nd April 2017
"'Ring' is a defty handled, semi-absurd look at jealousy between long-term partners Vicki and Jo, in which the 'other woman' Suzy is actually a goldfish. Deborah Sekibo makes Vicky the goldfish-fancier extremely likeable where the character might have been too unsympathetic. As broody-but-in-denial Jo, Kim Burnett is quietly heartbreaking. Flack and Tosh trust their actors to convey a lot more onstage than is spelled out in the dialogue and it's a well-written piece that never feels rushed in spite of the need to stay funny whilst covering a remarkable amount of emotional ground."
