Elaine Chapman at Theatre and Arts Reviews said: “One thing that never fails to amaze me is watching the familiar actors thrive year after year and as their confidence grows their strength in character roles grows too. This year the theme was adventures. Now who doesn’t like an adventure of some sort whether it’s a long-distance trip, a visit to watch a new film or simply trying a new food or drink? Life is full of them.”
