ive just come back from the matinee of stepping out at the churchill in bromley, and i have to say i was quite disappointed overall - i am not sure what the director was up to - maybe they should have got julia mackenzie back to direct as she directed the original and the musical version
lucy williamson was very good as mavis but nobody else shone, and the design was poor
rosie ashe needs to remember if you are playing an old lady who walks oddly to keep up the walk all the time, and dont come on to join the dance number at the end and walk / dance normally
god alone knows why (other than to put bums on seats) anyone would cast brian capron and jessie wallace. it brings out the total morons who are attracted by a nice tv name irrespective of the fact that they couldnt act there way into or out of a paper bag - a great example of this was the three women sitting next to me who talked through the entire show - ladies if you are reading this stay at home next time, or if you choose to talk then dont be surprised that someone tells you to shut up - they told me i was rude for having a go at them - get over it girls, stay at home, paint your nails and read bella
