On the Road Again!

When we got back from the panto yesterday, at abut 6pm,  I turned on the laptop.  Logged into the Marlowe Theatre Peter Pan booking page for the 23rd December 2026. We like the 2.30pm performance so we can use the park and ride - see earlier blog. WHAT!!! I like the circle. There is less chance of being singled out for "audience participation". This year a guy called Matthew was picked and ended up on stage in one stage routine!  Not for me. Sadly, there were no seats together that wouldn't leave one unused seat! So I couldn't book in the circle. We are now in the upper circle where there were also few double seats left! But we are in the front row. So no one standing up in front of us!

Yesterday was panto time at The Marlowe in Canterbury. As it was my birthday Claire emailed so that when they did the birthdays I got a mention too. Luckily not my age. 62. So this year it was Peter Pan. Superbly done as usual. Great scipt as usual. And music a perfect match. The two "soap" stars this year Wendi Peters and Shawn Williamson were good and could both sing. Essential as pantos are musicals. Next year. Cinderella.
