FEATURED REVIEWS FOR White Rabbit Red Rabbit
A bewildering but poignant mystery
6 / 10
Reviewers are also requested to keep the secrets of White Rabbit Red Rabbit. But what I can say is that it deals in themes of oppression, identity and what it means to be free. Animal metaphors are used as the foundation of the story; they are poignant but also bewildering, which is part of Soleimanpour’s plan. Like the actor each evening, the audience also has to experience the theatrical unknown.
Nick Mohammed sets the bar high in this all-star, white-knuckle theatre experiment
8 / 10
Soleimanpour’s writing is very meta, looping around to interrogate the act of a performer interpreting and communicating the work to an audience. It challenges us to analyse our natural responses: do we start to think of Mohammed as the author, and how much is our view of Soleimanpour shaped by him? Mohammed, who is an astonishingly good cold-reader and delightful company, certainly lent the author his charm, and – for better or worse – an eagerness to put us at ease. Other performers may revel in the uncomfortableness of the situation.

Beyond its simple gimmick, White Rabbit Red Rabbit remains a refreshingly authentic piece of theatre in a time when even the most improvised works have an element of rehearsal.
