Confusing for sure … Lionel Richie and Katy Perry were the main musical entertainment at the weekend’s King Charles coronation. The ending has the cast in a simulated disco (with great lighting!) singing a raucous disco number. Ham, which receiver a TONY nom for lighting, had some funny moments, but was really nothing more than an outside barbecue family which almost always is a recipe for disaster. Dancin’,which just posted a closing notice this week, is a gem of a play and sadly, never really broke through. We saw two Broadway presentations: Dancin’ the Bob Fosse tribute which was just spectacular and Fat Ham, which looked great but I have absolutely no idea what it was about.
comedy falls, fluffed lines and multiple malfunctioning props invade and prevail. What will those headphones pick up next? In the meanwhile the set is collapsing around the casts heads, bodies and arms. Meanwhile Dennis (Jonathan Sayer) who plays John, can not remember his lines, so he wears a large headset to be feed him his dialogue, and the frequency is not always the best. However Wendy is having a torrid affair with Peter, who like Peter has not grown up.
The last production was “Jack and the Bean”, as they had no funding. Max however would rather play Peter and has learned his lines in hopes of kissing Sandra (Charlie Russell), who plays Wendy. Once the show starts thanks to a generous donation from the rich uncle of Max (Matthew Cavendish) who plays Michael/crocodile, the Corney Drama Society explains that this is their most technically ambitious production yet, complete with a rotating stage, flying actors, and a light-up dress for Tinker Bell (Nancy Zamit who also plays mother and the housekeeper Lily). We are watching amateur dramatics go even more amateur as we laugh non-stop hysterically and it’s just the tip of the iceberg. As soon as you enter the theatre stage manager Trevor (Chris Leask), director Chris Bean (Henry Shields), Gill (Bianca Horn) and Jonathan (Greg Tannahill) Peter Pan, are trying to figure out the lighting, flying and other problems related to the production, as the assistant director Robert Grove (Henry Lewis) is onstage fiddling with the lights that seem to have a multiple shorts. Peter Pan Goes Wrong starts before the show even begins.
