Very Orange Tree, this one.
Written in the Edwardian era. Set 100 years or so before that.
Janie is usually unenthusiastic about these period pieces, but we have been supporters of the Orange Tree for a long time and tend to get withdrawal symptoms if we reject all of the period stuff.
Mostly Orange Tree regulars in the cast. Auriol Smith directing, Sam Walters hovering around like an expectant father (we were there very early in the run).
Here’s the Orange Tree Archive to tell you all about it – click here. Didn’t realise the archive went back this far – pleasant surprise to find this. Even some headlines from the reviews – well done Orange Tree.
It was a very good production, this. One of the better ones there. Kate McGuiness was especially good in the lead.
