The Dresser - Newport amdram at its best


I went to see Newport Playgoers' production of 'The Dresser' last night and was again impressed at how good local amateur theatre can be. Everyone in it - particularly Lawrence Llewellyn as Norman, the dresser, and Will Smith-Haddon, as the ageing actor-manager at the end of his career (and his tether) - was absolutely brilliant. Great set to complement the acting and beautifully directed by Ruth Ferguson. Playgoers' next production will be Agatha Christie's classic country house murder mystery, 'The Hollow' - another must-see.
