Review: SLEUTH AND ONE FOR THE POT at SHAW FESTIVAL
August 08, 2026 An embarrassment of artistic riches has yet again convened in Niagara on the Lake for this season’s Shaw Festival. Two very different plays are given world class productions sharing many of the same talents. Last week I attended Anthony Shaffer’s psychological thriller SLEUTH at the intimate Court House Theatre as well as the raucous British farce ONE FOR THE POT by Ray Cooney and Tony Hilton at the Festival Theatre. Both were splendid examples of what this fine repertory theatre continues to produce season after season.
