Silas Marner review
Jon Fox reviewed our production of Silas Marner the Musical on behalf of NODA, and commented
“Silas Marner was movingly and superbly played by Peter Thomas, who inhabited rather than acted this troubled and unfairly tormented man...
...the singing was so interwoven into the scenes and story that there was never an “oh I bet we now get a song here” feeling, as in so many musicals. There were so many stand out scenes - the Villagers accusation - Silas’s anguish at being robbed of his gold - Eppie’s arrival as a baby - the age of the machine (really well staged) - the brothers blackmail scene - Godfrey and Nancy arriving to reclaim Eppie and her decision to stay with Silas - Silas’s final happiness at Eppie’s marriage to Aaron”
