 Those
clever Shakespeare for Breakfast people have managed to do it
again.. They have succeeded in getting me, the most confirmed Bard
Philistine in the Fringe to a play with the dreaded ‘S’ word
in the title and at 10.00am as well!!
If
anyone out there is not aware of the format, well, a selection of
fine young actors, this years troupe being Angela Bleasdale,
Rebecca 'Bex' Cooper, Mark Gibbs, Ishwar Maharaj and Tegwen Tucker
and put a spin on the works of W.S., well maybe a major reworking
would be a better description with The Lost Musicals!
They
employ every known device to entertain and succeed big style.
Divas, stagehands, pretentious directors and camp choreographers
are just some of the folk we meet in this most dubious of
musicals.
I'm
not going to spoil the entertainment value by giving a synopsis of
the plot, what I will say is that there are fine performances from
one and all, good writing, tight direction amusing songs well sung
and free coffee and croissants to boot.
Go on, get up early and
enjoy the show ... you know you want too!!!!
