Lovely to catch up with our members in August, although a somewhat disrupted year, thoughts go to those who work in live theatre. How difficult it has been for so many, yet plans have continued when able and hopes remain high for future productions. Perhaps next year we may be able to attend some local performances.
Our enthusiastic group embraced the reading of the play, A Lady Mislaid. First performed in the 1950’s and written by Kenneth Horne, the story involved two unmarried sisters renting a country cottage, seeking peace and quiet whilst one was recovering from a nervous breakdown. Within a short time police arrive and start looking for the dismembered wife of the previous tenant. Their quiet life becomes chaotic when the meek and timid husband of the supposed victim, arrives. Classed as a comedy thriller the play provided many amusing incidents, which all agreed would be delightful when performed on stage.
Unfortunately, due to lockdown we will be unable to meet for Playreading on September 1st.
Keep well, enjoy the sunshine and the colours and beauty of Spring.
See you all in October!
