Excellent Audiences

Saturday night was our last performance and the actors kept the audience on the edge of their seats until the last moments of the play. Credit to Agatha Christie for writing such a good psychological thriller. Here are a few pics from the final dress.

Take my hat

You don't like young people

Footling along....

Get some brandy!

I cannot remember that name

She had grey eyes...

Beatrice Taylor?

In the light of day

I'll watch it!

Many thanks to Richard Lummiss for these pics. 

Well done, cast and crew!

Fireplace renewal

The sets at the theatre go through repainting for every show. This fireplace, first designed and built for Jim Alexander's show, Hedda Gabler, has been repainted yet again and "retiled" by Siobhan and Ian.

This Christie Classic is Launched!

 After months of preparation, the show has finally opened. Thursday night, the first performance of the play was dedicated to the memory of Jim Alexander. The cast and crew did amazingly well. Suspense reigned that night. The audience waited with baited breath to find out who the murderer was. At each intermission, lots of dialogue erupted about the clues, the characters and the plot details.

Painting the floor!
