Whore house review

Guess who gets a mention from our first review of the show ????? of the six members of the band, not the brilliant piano plonker, or the equally good bass player,fiddle player, and the drummer ..... all grade "A" musicians but no its the Steel guitar player who has not a clue and is "winging" it :roll: LOL

Directed and choreographed by Michael Gamble, on both accounts it was a big success. I loved the energy in the dance numbers and the pace of the scenes were just right. No hanging about as the scenes flowed from one to the next.

The sets themselves were designed by Scenic Projects giving a professional and glamorous sheen all round.

One man who must have been run ragged was the Stage Manager, Adrian Wray, keeping this particular ship on a perfect even keel.Ably assisted by Lynne Leeming.

A large amount of wonderful costumes and wigs made this a visual treat.

The band of six really created a wonderful Nashville feel and I'm a sucker for a proper pedal steel guitar, played with feeling by John Davis. All under the musical direction of Vicki Hing.

Great sound and great lighting brought even more life to this bouncy show.
