Review – 5pound theatre’s Ubu Roi

The set is striking; performed outdoors in an ankle-deep pit of mud, the first row of the audience is provided with plastic sheets to protect from the splatter. It’s a brilliant feature… there’s something undeniably and viscerally satisfying in watching people quite literally slinging mud at each other.

The film tried too hard to mean something, to be more metaphysical. Apparently this is from the source material, but it didn’t translate well into film, and I couldn’t quite get swept along for the ride.
