‘Quartet’ by the Ripon Rowel Players

Quartet review

Reviewing a play is always a pleasurable assignment and I was happy to oblige one fine Sunday afternoon a couple of weeks ago. Having missed the film, I went along to the Ripon Spa Hotel with no preconceptions and had a thoroughly enjoyable time of it. The seating in the ballroom was cabaret style with optional refreshments during the performance and between acts, all of which contributed to the convivial atmosphere.

My review has appeared in full today in the local press. If anyone connected with the performance is away and unable to get hold of a copy, please let me know.
