She Stoops to Conquer
Sat, 31 Oct 2009, 10:53 amI sat in on the final dress rehearsal last night.
Very impressed.
This play stands the test of time so well, and is still hilarious.
Director Stephen Lee has, as always, found every possible opportunity to get a laugh; some of them very cheap, but aren't they often the best giggles?
Bosom gags, dick gags, mistaken identities, ribald double-entendres.
It's got the lot, reinforced by some huge character performances.
The Cast: top notch.
Costumes: dead right, another superb job by Merri Ford.
Set: damn slick if I do say so myself.
Lighting: Excellent. Powered by Josh Vietch.
If you're only going to see one show in November, do yourself a favour and see this one. A true classic, beautifully crafted by Director, Cast and Crew.
To Promote or Review

Like this "I think The Admirable Crichton" will be brilliant. Of course it will ... I'm directing it, and I have no self-delusions in anyway.

S'cuse me. Time for my pills.
