" No! No! No! Yyyyyes! .......What A LOvely Vicar!"

With friends recently, we enjoyed a performance of " The Vicar Of Dibley" at the Forum Studio Theatre Chester, by Tiptop Theatre Company. SEE www.chestertheatre.co.uk  for more.

Lots of short sharp scenes featured on a cleverly designed stage set.... with Dawn French lookalike Joanne Lloyd, stunning as Vicar Geraldine.....supported ably by a great cast.
This included Kathryn Wilson, the perfect ( NOT exagerating) Alice Tinker... ..who was JUST as dottily engaging as the original.....plus a posse of menfolk, wonderfully in character.

All deserve mentioning as all shone out. They were Mark Shenton as Mr Horton, Kiefer Jones, a beguiling Hugo, with Mike Heathcote as Frank and Grahame Smith playing a dopey hilarious Owen.

John Lindop was a super Jim Trott.......
AND it seems next day, my friend was browsing John Lewis.....the store, not a person, I hasten to add......only to glimpse Jim Trott, busily shopping himself...........  my friend declares it took great control on her part.... not to rush over to say: " No! No! No! Dddddon't buy that...!"

*** NEXT production: Noel Coward's " Blithe Spirit" May 16th until 25th. See website for booking etc.
