I am fast running out of superlatives with which to describe the choice of material, the interpretations and the staging of plays at the Owl and Cat Theatre. Gabrielle Savrone, a director and Thomas Ian Doyle, a playwright and director, took over the space in Swan Street, Richmond only 18 months ago. In that time…
