At last the show is on the road.  Yesterday we found ourselves in the once familiar surroundings of Adam House where the Grads used to do all their shows.  The place is in remarkably good nick considering how little tlc it ever got in the past and how little we can assume it has received since we stopped being regulars.

The dressing-room tannoy was reliably non functional but who cares when the house is practically full and the show is going great guns.  The feeling on stage was good in the little bits I'm in and sounded spot on from the wings elsewhere.  The audience laughed a lot at the funny bits (of which there were more than I had noticed), maintained a respectful silence when it was sad and serious and applauded enthusiastically at the end.  What more can you ask for?

And oh, the director was deliriously happy.
