    Rufus Wainwright blames Brexit for his Sheridan Smith musical flop closing early | Theatre | Entertainment

    May 9, 2024 - By

Other theatre critics slammed the musical about an alcoholic actress preparing for the opening night of her new play. Labelled a “tedious mess” some theatregoers were so “bored” they ended up walking out during the interval.
