MUCH ADO INDEED
Thame Players excelled themselves in their adaption 'Much Ado About Nothing', brilliantly cast and scripted set in the 30's final night Saturday 11th July
Following an eye operation Saturday morning at JR Hospital after slicing my eyeball and inserting a lens I had the benefit of enjoying every sequence missing nothing through 'double vision' as the cast injected their personal characters into the role giving me and my guest countless grins and laughter, loved Beatrice's attempts at 'covert' scenes with the 'hands first appearing on the back of a chair followed by a face and of course the 'Old Vic' who played one!
Set in the grounds of The Elms, (period property) creating a marvellous backdrop (shame the Moon which was the closest to the Elms! that night was hiding in the night clouds), the tech boys had the sound just right and the scenery changers put me in a flap!
As I stumbled over the odd clump of grass during the interval due to my 'double vision' friendly hands took charge of my wine glass preventing spillage as we made our way to our seats for a thoroughly enjoyable evening
Well done Thame Players
