Thank you for a wonderful evening. For the first time in many years, we were able to share the event with one of our children and part of her family. They had such fun, as we did. The casting was perfect; there wasn't a weak link! I had been a little nervous about whether the "Englishness" of the play could be handled without strain or inconsistency. It certainly succeeded, in our eyes and ears!
