Review: ESCAPED ALONE, The Coronet Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - May 7, 2026


Caryl Churchill meets ‘il dolce far niente’ in this reimagined production of her 2016 play Escaped Alone. Italian companies lacasadargilla and Piccolo Teatro present a timid adaptation written by Monica Capuani and directed by Lisa Ferlazzo Natoli and Alessandro Ferroni. It’s a pity that the quintessentially bleak English approach of Churchill’s four ageing women as they spend their summer between tea and gossip fails to translate. Caught between the shackling boredom of retirement and a desire to maintain their identities, they reminisce and dig up the past, unearthing a few uncomfortable truths. In all this, Mrs. Jarrett slips into apocalyptic speeches that detail environmental disaster and societal collapse.
