Shakespeare and beyond

Well as I said in my last blog,The Lowry seems to be where it's all going on at the moment.Monday past The Dean and I saw The Reduced Shakespeare Company, now don't go "ugh Shakespeare". Even if you hated doing it at school,if you get the chance go see this highly entertaining show, well worth the effort.Fun and funny all the plays in 97 minutes,madcap and taken at breakneck speed. Well I enjoyed it. Now on Wednesday "The Mikado" took over the Quay's theatre.A modern slant on the traditional Gilbert & Sulivan Operretta,entertaining without taxing the little gray cells. Hampered only by the fact that Yum Yum had a very nasty throught infection. Next up at the Lowry John Savient in Hobsons Choice .Thats Next week from Wednesday,so if you fancy a bit of northern grit then we may well see you there.
