I do love to see a play, it is not very often I get the chance and the majority of my Societies perform musicals.
This is a well-known and beloved sit com, and PODs did it proud.
Val Mallows as the redoubtable Hyacinth, was a treat, just enough of Patricia Routledge without it being a caricature. A very good comedy performance.
All the characters were very well cast and played sympathetically. I particularly liked Emmet’s (Vic Atkins) slow decent into hysteria, another very good performance. Milly (Robert Gairey) had me giggling every time he came on, from shy self conscious at the beginning to partner of man mad Rose (Debbie Appollonio)
The whole thing was a joy to watch, very well acted and a nice set.
It is lovely to leave a theatre giggling after having a good night’s entertainment
Thank you yet again for your marvellous hospitality, and I hope to see you soon.
