The Critic (15)
Director: Anand Tucker
Writer: Patrick Marber
Jimmy Erskine is the most feared theatre critic of the age. He lives as
flamboyantly as he writes and takes pleasure in savagely taking down any
actor who fails to meet his standards. When the owner of the Daily
Chronicle dies, and his son takes over, Jimmy
quickly finds himself at odds with his new boss and his position under
threat.
In an attempt to preserve the power and influence he holds so
sacred, Jimmy strikes a Faustian pact with a struggling actress,
entangling them and the boss in a thrilling but deadly
web of desire, blackmail, and betrayal.

Support The Corn Hall
As
a charity we rely on donations to help cover the cost of delivering our
programme of exhibitions, events, our community activities such as our
Dementia Café, Arts Award, Saturday Club, Tots Tuesdays, Start With Art,
as well as supporting our core costs. We ask you to support The Corn
Hall with a donation, so that we can continue to be a creative community
hub for Diss. Whatever the donation, anything from £1 to £10,000, is
support that The Corn Hall didn't have until you very kindly gave it to
us. We offer you a very warm thank you.
