AT ALL COSTS: REVIEW


(Above: Peter Terry)

A strong performance by Terry and skilful direction by Honeyman. A must-see for spoken word theatre enthusiasts and lovers of history. (Review by Jean van Elden of his performance at the recent Hilton Arts)

Peter Terry’s one-man show At All Costs, recently seen at the Hilton Festival, comes to Rhumbelow Theatre for performances on October 2 and October 3.

Peter Terry has penned, and performs in, a deeply-moving account of a retired engineer who recalls his experiences as a 19-year-old soldier during the Battle of Delville Wood in 1916.

Terry brings to life the horrors and realities of war through his enthralling monologue. He transports the audience to the bloody battlefield with his vivid descriptions and beautifully-delivered words. The audience relives his nightmares with him and empathizes with all veterans who are haunted by their war memories. A strong performance by Terry and skilful direction by Honeyman. A must-see for spoken word theatre enthusiasts and lovers of history.– Jean van Elden
