Act Reviews 2024 / 2025 Season

musical ability, from the tin whistle to the guitar: this musical element enhanced the entire production immensely, Director Darren Brierley deserves high praise for his handling of the material. His direction kept the energy light and comic while allowing the deeper emotional currents to shine through. Brierley ensured each character's unique quirks and personalities played off each other, creating a dynamic trio that drew the audience in with laughter, empathy, and the sense that they were witnessing something real and raw unfold on stage. In summary, Folk was a delightful, well-paced production that blends quirky humour with a touching exploration of human connection. The Rossendale Players, under Brierley's capable direction, delivered a truly memorable performance that left audiences laughing, humming, and thinking about the unexpected places where we find friendship and meaning.
