Read-through

So, we had a read-through of the play on Monday evening and it went extremely well indeed.

As with all Stoppard plays it's a very wordy piece with lots of innuendo, spoonerisms, and other word-play gags. These don't usually work well when reading a play cold for the first time. But credit where it's due, the Ottershaw gang put their souls into the reading and we had a great time reading the play through.

Now I'm looking forward to a good turnout for auditions.

[And, of course, not looking forward to the decision-making process that follows...]
