" Beware: Men With Paintbrushes! "

 

Last week, another success for Chester Theatre Club.***
Lisa Miller skilfully directed "Art", Yasmina Reiza's compelling play about.......yes,  the nature of art....
It's also a stylish comedy tied up with the complex intricacies of male friendship. And believe me, these intricacies were superbly revealed last week...
Serge buys a painting...a wonderful plain perfectly white painting...and the drama revolves around this piece of "art"...along with the lives and opinions and relationships of three very different longtime friends...

ALSO last week: I saw local writers group " Script to Stage" perform a showcase of their juicy bitesize plays. The plays were directed by Gail Young, whose play " Cheshire Cats" was published last year by Samuel French... and has raised lots of welcome money for breast cancer charities.
