See How They Run

See How They Run is the debut play from The Reduced Height Theatre Company, the first theatre company made up entirely of short actors. Warwick Davis is the star of the play as well as producer and founder of the company itself.

See How They Run is an absolute joy to watch. The actors do a terrific job of maintaining the fast paced comedy that I assume the source material was reliant on. Not only does every actor deliver well in terms of comedy they are simply fantastic actors. There really isn’t a weak link amongst them and this ensemble is an absolute treat to watch.

I’ve always been a fan of Warwick Davis from his well-known work in Star Wars and Harry Potter to his lesser known role in the Oscar winning film Ray, I enjoyed seeing him perform as he’s such a natural actor and stage presence.

The fact that he is such a successful actor, and as I had never heard of this play beforehand made me wonder whether this was going to simply be a vehicle for him to showcase his own personal talent. However with a cast this brilliant and a script this great everyone involved has their time on stage, and their time to shine. Some true talents in this play, and it really made me wonder why on earth I’d never seen them in films or on television.

Warwick Davis’ See How They Run is an absolute joy to watch, with laughs throughout and a great message behind it. I hope The Reduced Height Theatre Company takes off because I’d love to see more from these truly gifted actors. 10/10
