“An Inspector Calls”<br />

at Richmond Theatre<br />

We<br />

are members of one body: this famous<br />

line about social responsibility from<br />

the play ‘An Inspector Calls’ by JB Priestley<br />

still resonates with us today, just as strongly<br />

as it did over 60 years ago when the play was<br />

first written.<br />

was of a very high standard. Props and the<br />

set were arranged with such thoughtfulness that<br />

it made everybody jump out of their seats when<br />

the set started falling apart which - by the way -<br />

was an intentional event.<br />

I can most confidently say the production was<br />

enjoyed by all of us. Overall, I’d like to say that I<br />

considered it a privilege to attend such an excellent<br />

performance which helped me understand the<br />

staging a lot better and which will definitely<br />

benefit me when doing my English GCSE exam<br />

questions based on this play.<br />

On Wednesday 20th April <strong>2016</strong> we were lucky<br />

enough to go and see a performance of ‘An<br />

Inspector Calls’, one of our GCSE English<br />

literature texts. Arriving by coach, our journey<br />

really began when we entered the house full of<br />

spectacle called Richmond Theatre. Eager and<br />

excited, we were greeted by staff who led us<br />

to our seats; the crowd around us murmuring<br />

in excitement. The anticipation arose when the<br />

lights finally dimmed and the tension started<br />

rising as we eagerly waited for the cast to<br />

display their talents. A large quantity of smoke<br />

rapidly engulfed the stage and the crowd grew<br />

more eager and eager for what was about to<br />

come. Then all of a sudden we started to hear<br />

the music cancelling out the crowd’s whispers,<br />

resulting in pin drop silence.<br />

The performance was truly inspiring and<br />

interpreted this great play ‘An Inspector Calls’<br />

in a captivating manner. It will undoubtedly lead<br />

to our success during our GCSEs as watching<br />

the play brought to life in such a brilliant way<br />

will help us remembering the play on a deeper<br />

level. The visual representation, particularly<br />

of the house itself, raised on stilts to signify<br />

the elite position of the Birling family, was<br />

remarkable and sincerely unforgettable.<br />
