I'd been trying to see TG for a couple of years but this was my first chance, on the opening afternoon and my first show this Fringe.

The audience varied from babes in arms to grandparents, all of whom seemed to be having a great time, even youngsters of two years old sat for most of the show totally captivated.  I was at a little of a disadvantage as 90% of the audience had obviously read the book and were able to join in with the script in places.

The accompanying songs were fairly basic and the encouragement needed to join in minimal. This professional production is praiseworthy for the obvious effort the company put into it. The show has been a fringe regular sell-out and I expect it will continue to do so this year.
