Catchup, catchup, catchup, this time the theatre over the summer!

In July we went to new venue in the appropriately named Bridge Theatre in the shadow of Tower Bridge. We went to see a wonderful production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which swapped effectively Oberon and Titania’s roles, produced in the round, with some of the audience immersed in the rising and falling stage sections. Very enjoyable.

On a slightly less grand, but equally entertaining scale, an August trip to Gravesend took us to see The Pantaloons performing Hamlet, complete with unscripted falling during one of the (many!) death scenes. All very silly and wonderful as always.

Our final play, a couple of months later was probably even smaller scale, an AmDram production of The Rivals in the Medway Little Theatre. We were there (with David) because Emma was providing a wonderful Mrs. Malaprop.
