7 April 2008
On Saturday we made a first visit to the Watford Palace Theatre to see 'As You Like It'. The Palace is currently celebrating its centenary: it reopened following a substantial refurbishment in 2004 which restored the period splendour of the auditorium while creating a gleaming modern foyer - much like the development of the Royal Theatre in Northampton. 'As You Like It' is the first Palace Shakespeare production since 1976 and it was a very enjoyable evening. Well cast and well acted throughout with some great mugging from Lisa Jackson as Rosalind and a show-stealing scene from Claire Prempeh as Phebe. We'll definitely be revisiting Watford soon.
