”Alex just sauntered in here and took over,” praises cast mate Julianna Margulies. ”She’s such an explorer — I mean, this is a woman who’s already seen more of L.A. than any of us. She goes on long car trips by herself just to see some mountain she’s heard about, and then she’ll end up spending a week there. She has an incredible willingness to learn about life.” (x)

From H.R.H. to S & M

Matt Smith played Dr. Who and Prince Philip before landing the title role in “Mapplethorpe.” He and his director, Ondi Timoner, communed

“He wasn’t a warm and fuzzy guy,” the actor Matt Smith said, of the late photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. "Mapplethorpe had to possess and perfect everyone, so he slept with the person, and photographed the person. It became almost predatorial.””

            In short, Admissions is not to be missed. (x)

“I am impressed by the power of the storytelling, but it is an extraordinary play – probably the best I have seen both for acting and for the lingering messaging that prompted conversation after the play, and for the following couple of days.”

Alex Kingston here makes a blazing return to the London stage in the role.  (x)

Nevertheless, there are entirely gripping and persuasive performances from Alex Kingston as the mother and Ben Edelman in a lacerating study in teenage disenfranchisement as her son…(x)

Alex Kingston shines in intelligent new satire Admissions (x)

These scenes also shine because of Alex Kingston and Margot Leicester who put in detailed, nuanced and believable performances. Kingston is barely off stage throughout the whole thing and yet the show still feels like an ensemble piece – always the sign of an excellent lead performer. She manages the complexity – mother/worker/human – of her role beautifully.Sarah Hadland, as Sherri’s friend is also great in a generally very strong cast. (x)

But there is first-rate work from Alex Kingston as his anguished mum, Sarah Hadland as her distressed best friend…(x)

The performances across the board are strong, most notably from Alex Kingston who shares some agonising moments with the audience as we see her rearranging her thoughts and reactions to maintain her idealised image of herself. (x)
