I`ve just got back from seeing this play and I honestly loved it.
It is a well written farce with excellent charachters which were brought to life extremely well by the performers. It takes a couple of minutes to get going and I wouldn`t describe it as pacey but when it gets going the strength and diversity of the charachters makes it a comedy well worth tittering over (I still am). The quick fit man reminds me of Tony Robinson at his Baldrick best and the coppers were hilarious although way short of the nasty r soles I remember from my tree protesting days.
All in all it was well worth a fiver on a wednesday night (I`ve got gigs of me own for the rest of the weekend so that wasn`t the only reason I chose tonight) I recommend you stop
thinking about taking the missus out somewhere different and get down the town hall now and get some tickets. It was mostly a lot of older folks in but this play would appeal to younger people a lot more I think. While comical the play manages to carry off a subtler more serious undertone of _ not being to divided by differences nor become to complacent with what you feel you have everything in common_ well thats how it came across to me but what the L do I know about theatre ?
All I know is I like what I like.
Well done to all involved.
Break a leg.
