Pride And Prejudice

 


What a delightful evening 
A Thai meal followed by a camp production of Pride And Prejudice in the Grosvenor Park open air theatre
Where everything felt right including a bearded rotund Howard Chadwick gliding on stage as Lady Catherine De Bourge. 
The romantic and lovely drama was turned into a gentle comedy of manners and relationships and it was lovely to laugh and be moved by the words of Austen even when they were played sweetly and with humour

    How delightful, both the setting and the play! I'm glad you were there to enjoy both.

    Hugs!

  2. Outdoor theater is always enjoyed. Your evening sounds outstanding. You are fortunate to have an amphitheatre nearby and can attend future performances.

  5. How wonderful for you!

    PS: Just came from Magnon. Your comment there quite nearly had me on the floor.

    I hate to ask, but can someone enlighten me? WTF is Chloe?

  6. Having read the wretched book 20 times for my O Level, I think that production would have made a very refreshing change.

  7. Fun! I was just reading about how Shakespeare in the Park in NYC has resumed at 80% capacity, a rewrite of Merry Wives of Windsor, reset in Harlem. [??] I always loved going to the open air productions, and was thinking how much you'd enjoy going if you timed a NYC visit for [hot] summer someday.

  16. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
