London Assurance

Saturday, the group went to see a comedy called London Assurance, and it was hysterical. Just a situational comedy with great actors and great costumes. There's not much I can do to describe this play. But there were lots of recognizable people in it.

Mary Addy: He's Friar Tuck in the new Robin Hood.

Fiona Shaw: Who is Aunt Petunia in the Harry Potter movies, amoung other numerous roles.

Simon Russell Beale: Who is a very famous British stage actor, and he played Charles Musgrove in Persuasion. You know, my favorite Jane Austen. Although you couldn't tell in this photo that they are the same person.

Richard Briers: Who was in Much Ado About Nothing, he was Mr. Smee in the live-action Peter Pan, and he starred in this Scottish soap opera I used to watch on PBS called Monarch of the Glen. Let's just say I was super excited when he came out on stage.
