Di, Viv and Rose

Another play at Hampstead Theatre, and  new one. Three female students meet in University Halls and then share a house for 3 years. A suitably unlikely threesome - a lesbian, a posh nymphomaniac and an earnest sociology student. The first act is their lives at university. The second act sees them heading towards middle age.

I can't say I found the characters that convincing, and there is an unfortunate visual credibility gap as its a tall order for any actress to be convincingly both 20 and 40. Sorry girls. But there was enough comedy and drama in the production to make it an enjoyable evening. There is one particularly good dramatic twist in the second act which you don't see coming. I won't spoil it for you.
