The stage, designed by Tijana Bjelajac, is relatively small but hides many secrets: coffins in the walls, an underground tomb and other unexpected props.  The visual jokes work well!  The key to any comedy farce is timing and in this, all of the cast excel, they play so many roles and have costume changes to match, it is hard to keep up. It has been said, “If you don’t like the joke don’t worry there will be another along in a minute”. Any play that has a fully attired bride crossing and recrossing the stage on a scooter can’t be all bad!

There are a fair number of farces on in London at this time with varying degrees of success, but this is definitely worth a visit. In reviewing this comedy, it is important to reflect how the audience reacted; very quickly they laughed and continued throughout. I heard people say they wanted to see it again. I think the Menier Chocolate Factory have a success on their hands.
