    Gogol’s ‘The Overcoat’ was brought to stunning life in the adaption by Gecko at the Wolsey and it was one of those nights when, from the opening moments, you knew you were witnessing something very special. Having performed it there two years ago the Company have now fine tuned their version and thankfully brought it back to the region for a short run before taking it to China.
