The comedy production of Hound Of The Baskervilles proved to be gently amusing rather than belly laugh Funny. But it passed an hour and a half well enough.
With Just three actors playing every character the pace of the piece was at the gallop so to speak and although not anything more than occasionally silly , it was diverting enough and reminded me of the set pieces performed by Laurel & Hardy
The audience went a bit hysterical about it..in a similar way the London audience did when I saw Come from away in July …..
Looks fun. Theatre Clwyd is a treasure.

DeleteIt is good that these local theatres survive - I am sure they don't find it easy these days.
ReplyDeleteWeave ..it’s a NATIONAL theatre xxx
DeleteTheatre Clwyd. A girl I once knew was a theatre designer there (it was a long time ago!). She inveigled me into an after show party for Porgy & Bess at Glyndeborne too. Salad days.

DeleteI've seen a production of this and yes, delightful but not belly laugh, like 39 Steps. glad you had a fun night out <3
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like an enjoyable evening and we all need a break from the seriousness of life sometimes.
ReplyDeleteWhen the mood is right, a bit of gentle silliness is true balm for the soul. Glad you enjoyed it. You sound brighter today. xx
