Click to read Joe's review of Riflemind at Trafalgar Studios

An enticing prospect at the Trafalgar this month sees the West end directorial debut of alternative film hero Philip Seymour Hoffman, who besides starring in such films as Charlie's War, The Big Lebowski and Capote is the director of the Labyrinth Theatre Company in New York.

He directs a brand new Andrew Upton play about a rock band reforming, full of dark wit, sharp dialogue and crackling tension. His lead man (the former frontman of the rock group) is John Hannah, the Scottish crumpet from Four Weddings and The Mummy.

Twenty years after their lead singer walked off stage for the last time, will the band still have what it takes? Will they be able to stand a weekend in each other's company? And how will their wives and daughters feel?

It's a tough and uncompromising show (see Joe's review) but rewarding in many ways.
