The Old Vic, 103 The Cut, Southbank, SE1 8NB

Theatre: , Melodrama, Thriller

Kevin Spacey assumes his Director's Hat once again at the Old Vic for this brand new, contemporary satire/thriller about a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who suddenly falls foul of the authorities and finds himself facing a dilemma of his own creation, in front of the Supreme Court no less.

It's Bush's America and suddenly the truth seeking, liberty-defending traditions which saw Ben Kritzler acclaimed by his peers and the public, have gotten him tagged a dangerous insurrectionist.

Expect a strongly anti-Republican, anti-war and pro-libertarian slant on this brand new work: there's also the small matter ffo the cast, which features Richard Dreyfuss, Elizabeth McGovern and David Suchet. You read that right.

Haven't been able to get into this show yet, but the reviews are coming thick and fast from all sides, audience feedback and critical reception suggests that despite a brilliant cast, this play is a real waste of time! Avoid
