★★★★ “Mesmerising” | Reviews for Wings

By youngvicstaff 21 Sep 2017

Wings opened last night at the Young Vic and the reviews are coming in fast.

This stunning production by Natalie Abrahami stars Juliet Stevenson as Emily, a one-time fiercely independent aviator and wing walker who suffers a stroke that profoundly changes the way in which she sees the world.
