RMDS Summer Show has always been one to look forward to and this year's offering was just as good as the rest: three separate shows, all very different in different parts of the building, all running at the same time with nibbles and drinks available between makes for a good night out.

This year’s title was ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway?’. The directors of each show then work on a story line to fit around the title. We first saw ‘Production Line’, directed by Joanna Day, assisted by Louise Daly and chorography by Charlie Hawker. This was based on a group of ants ruled by the Tyrant Queen. Lots of good songs and story - this was very enjoyable.

We then went to see ‘Headline’ Directed by Charlie Daniels, with Director & Choreographer Becky North, and Musical Director Jonathan Spratt. This show was more about people’s feelings, and relationships, and topical headlines, well thought out and good song choices.

We then went to see ‘Front Line’. Directors Dave & Cindy Wischhusen, with Choreography also by Cindy, and Musical director Alastair Hume. This section was army based; the timings of the dance moves and song choices are excellent. A lot of hard work went into this show. There was a great set with the ‘army barracks’ this just added to the plot. Adam Davis as the ‘Foreign Legionnaire’, Bernie Guy’s ‘I’m all alone’ were both very funny numbers. I loved the ‘Boots’ song sung by Lucie Evans and the girls. Lots of other great songs all added to the fun.

Well done to everyone evolved, there is a lot of hard work that goes on behind the scenes, with the leaders, bar staff, techies for each show and the wonderful food. Thank you for a great evening.
