“The play is about exploring that fear that you could die or lose something that you love at any moment.”
Many thanks to writer and actor @kieknowles for speaking to me about the Sheffield Blitz and the remarkable story of the men who escaped the Marples

This show was genuinely one of the most mesmerising and incredible things I've ever seen.
Sometimes you see stuff and you're like 'this has changed how I think about performance'. This was one of them. Congrats to a fantastic team (& catch me raving about it for the foreseeable)
Well. That was 10 times better than I remembered. So much to love about this play and the performance. I'd forgotten how physical it was too, loved all the movement. I'm SO GLAD I came. @opcrucible@kieknowles@crucibletheatre
What an incredible piece of theatre @kieknowles Operation Crucible is. Also tonight was my first visit to @crucibletheatre since the week of the first lockdown, it was so good to be back!
A fond farewell and a big congratulations to the cast and creative team on Operation Crucible for a brilliant run in the Studio these last few weeks.
Enjoy your last performance tonight @opcrucible !
Eep! I saw @opcrucible years ago & loved it. It's back but I've been too nervous to go to a theatre without distancing. But I've just booked an impromptu ticket for this afternoon so aaargh!
(Figured I've had 2 weeks at work w/ unmasked students everywhere & still negative...)
So so glad we managed to catch #OperationCrucible by @kieknowles last night @crucibletheatre - such incredible storytelling, unreal movement, stunning design & can’t stop thinking about those performances. They only have a couple of shows left so GO GO GO 🔥🔥🔥
Saw Operation Crucible last night having seen it when it was here a few years ago. Theatre perfection. @kieknowles is a genius, I needed to be reminded of that. #operationcrucible
Saw the wonderful @kieknowles Operation Crucible at @crucibletheatre last night and what a gut punch that show is. Gorgeous performances, design, sound, but at the very core just *incredible* storytelling. On til this Saturday - if you can get to see it you MUST. Bit of magic ✨
