Reviews

UK Theatre Web: 02Mar01:
Dear Sir Having recently enjoyed a performance of Deckchairs, staged by the Just Us Theatre Company, I would like to recommend this production to your readers! The ‘playlets’ are well written, displaying a joyously wicked sense of humour, and were performed with much flair and an easy mix of professionalism and spontaneity. The audience were soon drawn into a sense of ‘eavesdropping’ … as if also sitting in adjacent deckchairs, over-hearing the characters’ intimate, worldly-wise, funny, sad – and richly observed (often absurd) conversations. Not to be missed! I do hope many of your readers will treat themselves to this theatrical gem. Yours faithfully Sue Oldfield
