Selene – Tanya Moiseiwitsch Playhouse, Sheffield – The Reviews Hub

🔎 Sheffield · 12 hours ago

The Reviews Hub gives Selene a 70% rating, describing it as an energetic meditation on the Moon and a portrait of a young woman’s journey towards self-acceptance. Written by Alexander Flanagan Wright and performed by Megan Drury, the production follows Panda from childhood to age 24 as she explores identity, grief and her connection to the Moon.

The intimate staging features a bright Moon, piles of cards and papers, audience participation and atmospheric music by Phil Grainger. Drury plays the role with confidence, moving from an initially over-friendly manner to a lively portrayal of Panda’s rebellious adolescence and eventual transformation into Pandia, while the review praises her handling of the show’s humour, physicality and demanding Greek mythology references.

  • A lively, Moon-themed story about identity and self-acceptance.
  • Megan Drury delivers a confident, audience-focused performance.
  • The Reviews Hub awards the production 70%.
