The cornerHOUSE - Surbiton - 26 April
Easter weekend 2020. The height of lockdown. Not that it has stopped the Gower family from gathering at their Highland retreat to celebrate their daughter’s engagement to the son of the founder of one of America’s largest pharmaceutical companies. Their celebrations are cut short when Detective Inspector Anne Gould arrives unannounced. She’s not there to question them about the breach of lockdown rules. She is investigating the death of a foreign woman found in an Edinburgh flat with her three month old baby by her side.
How could any of the Gower family be connected to someone like that? Very easily, as DI Gould’s investigation reveals.
An(other) Inspector Calls is a new play by Andy Moseley that asks whether anything has really changed since Priestley’s seminal work.
‘Will leave audiences informed and moved about how the headlines impact real people in real ways.’ Bush Theatre Literary Department

Reviews of previous NoLogoProductions productions
Make-up
On one level it is a tale of indignation and anger at the world, his own family and community who fail to cope with those who are different. On another, it is also an exploration of the issues of identity that can affect us all and how we want to be perceived. ***** Daily Business
A disarmingly truthful and humorous piece, adroitly constructed and beautifully performed. Moj Taylor is skilled at both humour and pathos, prickly yet inviting, welcoming the audience into his world yet always keeping a distance. **** AllEdinburgh Theatre

After We Danced
If you are looking for a play that has warmth, examines the human condition, with some fine lines and performances from talented actors, then this could be the new play for you. ***** Remote Goat
Sweet and romantic, a well-rounded tale that is uplifting and believable. The strong cast inject a sense of energy and innocence into the carefully balanced script. **** British Theatre Guide
