Review: THE CHILDREN at The Players' Ring
What starts as a casual catch-up among old colleagues spirals into something much heavier, darker, and deeply haunting in Lucy Kirkwood’s The Children, now playing at the Players’ Ring in Portsmouth. In the famously intimate confines of the Ring—where the actors are often close enough to breat…
