Review of shows

SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL
Another matinee performance at the Playhouse which for some of us meant a pre theatre lunch at Fisherton Mill. Once again the theatre was packed and once again we were treated to a very polished and professional performance of this Sheridan period comedy. It was fast moving but with good timing slickly moving from one scene to the next. A relaxing and amusing piece of entertainment.
FLANDERS AND SWANN EVENING.
Tim Fitzhigham and Duncan Walsh Atkins brought to the Point the best ever Flanders and Swann evening since the performances by the "Originals". We were entertained to a full repertory of those marvellously witty 1950s songs and how easily we recalled the verses of "I’m a Gnu" and the Hippopotamus song. In fact we were raising the roof with our enthusiasm for "Mud, mud glorious mud"! A happy, lively innocent and fun evening.
