Who is Sylvia? What is she indeed? An extraordinary and amazing play performed splendidly by a first class troupe, which makes for a fabulous night at the theatre – that’s what! And while it is certainly a wonderful comedy, it is also sub-titled “Notes toward a definition of tragedy” and should not be missed. 10 out of 10!This remarkable play has been raved about, pilloried, delighted in and misunderstood since its release in 2002.
