Ondine by Jean Giraudoux, adapted by Maurice Valency
Directed by Sam Shammas
Performed at the Shaw Theatre, Brixton
Wednesday 2nd - Saturday 12th October 1996

"Try as everyone might, Ondine, the 16-year-old water spirit, is impossible to dislike and the same can be said of this revival adaptation of Jean Giraudoux's fairy tale... Sam Shammas' big-hearted, ruddy production is as doggedly wholesome as the heroine."
Patrick Marmion, Time Out (October 1996)
