The March on Russia

This is a tremendous revival of a David Storey play, from 1989, about an old collier wheezing his last (almost) at a 60th wedding anniversary beset by the sly put-downs of his long-suffering (or so she thinks) wife. There’s a Chekhovian richness to it, with particularly fine performances from Ian Gelder and Sue Wallace. Dominic Cavendish Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond (020 8940 3633), until Oct 7
