View: The Death of Bunny Munro: Matt Smith & Nick CaveThe Death of Bunny Munro: Matt Smith, Nick Cave and the strange, seductive pull of Brighton Interview with Edith Bowman The Death of Bunny Munro is a story that rides the fault line between chaos and tenderness and its adaptation arrives with a charge of pent-up energy.

View: Andor: Ben Mendlesohn & Denise GoughInside Andor: How real locations shaped Denise Gough and Ben Mendelsohn’s darkest roles Interview with Edith Bowman “Somebody built all of this for us to come and play on it.” Denise Gough Andor is a show built with hands as much as imagination.

As she puts it, “I thought this was all going to be on green screens” but instead “everything was built.” That shift changed her performance. Walking into Dedra Meero’s apartment, she felt as if she had entered a…
