Review
This a new play written by Rachel Welch. The dialogue was
very funny in places but the choice of language did not
always help, The story line was just believable; I did like
the video at the beginning which gave it a local flavour
that the audience could recognise.
All six actors gave convincing performances: Rachel Hilton
as Louise was extremely good and is turning into a good
little actress. Likewise, Charlotte Knowles improves with
each performance. Samantha was played by Zoe Duffin and,
like the other two young ladies, gave a hoot of a
performance - well done to all three of you.
As for the gentlemen, Michel Wignall was Paul and gave his
usual sound performance. Tony Vanderweele played the role
of Peter, not an easy part, but played it well. But for his
timing and delivery Tom Cohen as Julian was superb. These
six performers made it an enjoyable evening - not always
the script "technically speaking"
As for the staging the only thing I would have changed was
the way the chairs and tables were set at the end as it
needed to be different from the first scene. However,
another enjoyable evening at Chorley.
