Play review – “Voyage Round My Father” by John Mortimer

Mortimer’s best known play, and apart from Rumpole his work which is mostly likely to survive over the years. I was familiar which much of the material from having read Mortimer’s other autobiographical works, not to mention the biographies on him, but still found it very moving, funny and effective. It’s a memory piece of a play, with a very strong character in the father and that wonderful Mortimer sense of humour.
