Vicki Michelle
superb as the duplicitous wife. |

Vicki Michelle
was an excellent foil as Jacqueline and brought depth and
dignity to this somewhat understated role. |

Attractive
Vicki Michelle playing "the straight man" in fine
style. Skilfully she
set up one comic situation and comedy line after another.

I
half expected Allo Allo veteran Vicki Michelle to run on in a
short skirt speaking pigeon French. Instead she played scorned and
adulterous wife Jacqueline with a plummy English accent and great
aplomb. |

Michelle
succeeds in making the character formidable enough to command
authority while endowing her with enough humour and
vulnerability to prevent her becoming the stock marital dragon. |

The Stage |
| |
 |
Robert Duncan and Giles Watling give first class performances as
they squirm their way out of the tricky situations they find
themselves in. Equally first class is Vicki Michelle. |

Requiring split second timing and a huge amount of stage craft, it
could not be in better hands than with this team of TV favourites
led by Vicki Michelle, Robert Duncan and Giles Watling.

This
all star production featuring Robert Duncan, Vicki Michelle,
Glenda McKay, Giles Watling and Melanie Stace was slick,
confident, impeccably well timed and delivered with predictable
seemingly effortless expertise. |

Dickens and his cast clearly have the measure of this play, they
make it sparkle and fizz like the champagne they don't appear to
get. |
