I can't for one minute pretend that I'm qualified in any way to review theatre productions, however, what I can say, is that the most recent productions from Playlovers ('Eurobeat') and the current production of 'The Vagina Monologues'are a credit to the Playlovers team. I'd heard a bit about the Monoluges before now, but here I was seeing it for the first time. I went along expecting a comedy, in the style of 'Menopause the musical', of course, this play has much more. One minute funny, the next sombre, and thought provoking (especially for we mere-males). The cast were superb, in delivering, what in truth, is a potentially difficult subject matter (ha!)Great performance ladies. Be proud! The healthy audiences are richly deserved. cheers Johnny Grim A lad in sane productions

I am in fact registered to the site, hence my user name appearing at the top of my post. The negative and pointless comments that so many people seem to post on this site does nothing to unite the community, but rather divide it. I personally know of many many people who just dont bother to come here and post anymore for this exact reason. Have a look for yourself through the posts and it is the same small group of people who are posting all of the time. What does this tell you. I dont want to get into an argument over all of this, its just my opinion at the end of the day and an observation I have made. I thought the whole idea of this site was to promote theatre both pro and community, yet there seems to be so much slagging going on that it just drives people away. if that is the way that the admin wants it, then fine, that is his / her choice, but personally I would have thought that they would do everything possible to make this site informative and collaborative so that ultimately everyone benefits. Just my humble opinion. Richard
