‘’I came home absolutely elated, and all those sitting around us were just as delighted. It was absolutely brilliant and the play is my new all-time WDS favourite! Previously it was Steel Magnolias. When we set out to watch the play earlier that evening, I was wondering how a cast […]

“A surprising play, that was well-acted throughout, bringing us numerous different characters, seemingly adopted (literally sometimes) at the drop of a hat.

Entertaining Angels
