THEATRELAND

This months guest reviewer is celebrity hairdresser Nikki Clark

I was surprised to receive the invitation to Carton Dramatic societys latest offering as being a hairdresser Idont often get invited to review plays, but Kenneth Tynans loss is my gain.

And what an evening it turned out to be. Dylan Thomass gentle comedy about the inhabitants ofLlareggub (which apparently for all you wordies out there is Bugger all spelt backwards) was a wonderfulstart to the evening with the majority of the cast showing off beautifully tamed and glossy locks againstdark costumes (proving that black really is back).

Showing that post modernist Orwellian starkness is really making a comeback on the catwalk was The

Mouse in the Field. Paul Smith suits, clinical bobs and autumn field highlights made this anything butmousey.

Finishing off the first half was catastic Fur Better, Fur Worse excellent performances from all, which showedthat even pets need the kind of TLC that only a top salon can provide (Nicky Clark Pet and Go availablefrom all good Boots).

After a cup of coffee in which I discussed me recent holiday to Barbados with people on my table, I wasdelighted to see some comic cuts launching the second half. Nothing tickles my funny bone more thanwig jokes, but from wig pastiches we moved seamlessly on to the real thing, with twenties style bobsending a mutter of is she or isnt she around the assembled audience and a far from flyawayperformance from angry young man in Brillcream.

Finally I was glad to see that bunches made an appearance in the final offering of the evening, somemay say pass, I say coolly retro. And with the hilarious short back and sides, southern belle chignon andGeorge Michael buzz cut was a perfect end to a perfectly groomed evening.
