“If you love classic courtroom drama, then The Verdict is probably one of the best that you’ll ever see on stage. And those lucky enough to have tickets for the Middle Ground Theatre Company production at the Theatre Royal in Bath last week will surely testify. The plot crackles along at a fairly fast pace with all of the usual twists and turns that you might expect…….This stage adaptation is a first-rate production that should not be missed.”
