Captain Corelli's Mandolin review – wartime weepy is shocking and wondrous

Rose theatre, Kingston Rona Munro’s adaptation of the Louis de Bernières classic cuts back the love story to drum home the bloody trauma of conflict Louis de Bernières’s Greek island epic about love across the barricades was such a phenomenon in 1994 that the book’s blue-and-white cover is still instantly recognisable to many. Twenty-five years on, can this story of second world war island occupation still enchant or does it feel stuck in 90s aspic? Director Melly Still manages to both stay faithful to the original and inject it with freshness, while Rona Munro’s adaptation distils key themes, especially the question of whether the “enemy-occupier” in a war is ever free to show love or compassion to the occupied. But the story now trades on spectacle, song, movement and music. This is not far from being Captain Corelli’s Mandolin: The Musical. Much of the emotional drama comes from these aspects and while this means that the weighty, winding narrative of the book is simplified, it feels more streamlined, albeit occasionally elliptical.

A love song for Europe: the couple who drove 20,000 miles to record 731 tunes

They put a recording studio in a rickety motorhome and crossed 33 countries – asking strangers to knock out a tearjerker ‘People asked us, ‘Are you crackers?’” says Gemma Paintin. She can see why. Along with fellow Bristol artist James Stenhouse, Paintin spent half of 2018 travelling around Europe in an old motorhome, recording love songs. Their epic trek took in almost 20,000 miles, 33 countries, 46 languages and 731 songs – each sung in their battered mobile studio, mostly by random strangers. These ranged from a seven-year-old Greek boy singing the Kiss song I Was Made for Lovin’ You (“even the guitar parts”) to MEP Peter Simon, who laid down a German folksong. There was a singing security guard in Madrid and some lads in Leeds who bawled through Robbie Williams’s Angels. This, says Paintin, was “exactly how you’d expect a lad version of Angels to sound”.
