Theatre review: Posh, Old Fitz Theatre

A club for young men, bonded by privilege, shame and vulnerability.

Two panels. On left is a man smiling. He's wearing a white t-shirt under a blue denim jacket. On the left is cover of a book 'Highways and Byways'. The same man is wearing a suit, standing in front of a hill and looking sideways into the distance.
