Great fun for Whodunit fans
Now in its 69th year at the St Martin's theatre I managed to get half price tickets for the show. The theatre is very old and maybe small but with plenty of character.
I saw a matinee performance as the show has 2 cast line ups. There was a face or two that looked familiar but no big names.
Despite having to keep their distance on stage the cast did a great job. There were some funny scenes as a description on the radio of someone wanted for questioning matched pretty much everyone. The show never drags and it's fun trying to figure out the killer. The only downside for me was that there weren't any real clues to work out the killer for those who like to play detective. Overall though a fun couple of hours.

Surreal film
A very well made film with a good cast. An actor from a big TV show is now a struggling Theatre director who longs for his former glory days. It has some long unedited scenes which almost make it feel like watching a stage show. It uses some other clever camera tricks. The film is quite strange and might be a bit marmite because of it.
