Fuddy Meers to Close

Following in the wake of The Shape of Things, Tonight's the Night, et al, we now hear that Fuddy Meers (Arts Theatre) is to close this coming Saturday, 12th June.

Philip Fisher said of the play "The plot relies on far too many coincidences and has a lot of loose ends. This is probably completely irrelevant to viewers who will not analyse the play. They are far more likely to delight in the performances and the laughs," but others were less kind. In his Guardian review, Michael Billington said, "in its jokily determined celebration of off-the-wall eccentricity, the play simply proves that too many kooks spoil the broth," whilst Paul Taylor in the Independent began his review with "David Lindsay-Abaire's off-Broadway hit Fuddy Meers does not waste time tantalising you with the prospect that it might be any good."

Fuddy Meers opened at the Arts Theatre on 20th May (previews from 12th).
