I, Claudia

This is an excellent play, with a very strong performance by the author in all parts. The masks are odd at first, but after a while, they fade as the characters come forward. Kristen Thomson has the ability to develop gestrues and motions unique to each of the four characters, so there is never any doubt who is speaking. She changes masks and costumes, but I think she could do it without any of these devices and you would still know who is who.
It is a funny play, but also a very sad play about the difficulties of growing up, relationships, and all the messy business of life. The audience at the performance we attended seemed to have no problem finding the humour, but occasionally you did get the impressin that maybe they were missing the underlying sad themes.

Blythe Spirit

Angela Lansbury and Rupert Everett are both great in this production. She has more energy than most people half her age. Not great theatre, but a great afternoon of theatre.

Wicked

A big splashy musical based on the Gregory Maguire novel. Great voices, good production values, but no songs that you remember.

The Thirty Nine Steps

Hard to believe the John Buchan novel could become a comedy, but here it is. Funny and silly.
