We’ll Always Have Paris (The Mill At Sonning - 2010) directed by Joanna Read, spring 2010.
Published by Josef Weinberger Plays Ltd.
A feel-good play with laughter, tears, the promise of romance, anger, friendship and the advantages and disadvantages of growing old. Perhaps not "La Vie en Rose" but certainly a night to leave you charmed, amused, thoughtful - and smiling.
Reviews
"This has to be one of the most delightful and charming new plays to grace any stage..." The Stage
"Super play, super set, super performances from all five members of the cast. I could almost finish the review there and hope that everyone rushes to see Jill Hyem's new play for themselves." Reading Chronicle
"Handyman Charlot's desire to polish his English is a neat device by playwright Jill Hyem to explain why everybody on stage is not talking French, which might have proved a little difficult for the audience for this delightful, feel-good comedy....the characters are all admirably drawn...the play tells an excellent story that is utterly true to life...highly recommended." Oxford Times
"A play with laughter and tears "We'll Always Have Paris" has that feel-good factor guaranteed to see the audience leave the theatre smiling." Henley Standard
