Firstly, I would like to welcome Scunthorpe Little Theatre Club into the NODA family.
Terry Pratchett’s “The Fifth Elephant!” is a marathon of a play and congratulations must go to the direction of Linda Hankinson with so many characters to contend with. To get to grips and fully comprehend this play I feel it would have been beneficial to have read the book. Well done to all the cast. There were some very good performances and a lot to learn for many. The sets and costumes looked great and complimented the fantasy world of half humans, dwarfs, vampires and wolves. This is not an easy play to put across but it was done very well and everyone played their parts well and transported us from Ankh Morpork to Uberwald.
Thank you LTC for a lovely evening and I shall look forward to future productions.
