Last night Stuart & I went to see The Estate, a comedy about politics, wills & sibling wreckage @ Dorfman Theatre (@nationaltheatre) on London’s glitzy South Bank
Adeel Akhtar (@adeelak77) is aspiring politician, Angad, who dreams of making it big.
Only the ghost of his father hangs heavy. And his sisters have a score to settle.
Akhtar is magnetic - switching from brittle warmth to withering fury in heartbeat. He anchors Shaan Sahota’s debut play, razor-smart clash of grief, inheritance, & unspoken politics of family & identity.
It’s East Is East with mortgage & The Thick of It’s bile — full of dark laughs, sharper truths, & standout performances.
Funny, furious, & fantastically performed.
