THEATRE: Gasping by Ben Elton (Market Harborough)


A truly disappointing evening of entertainment... well in fact, half an evening as we left at the interval - something we haven't done in a very long time. But it was fully justified as this was painfully laboured and unfunny, despite the guffaws of laughter at every knob gag from the audience of people old enough to know better.

Upon leaving we alighted to the Three Swans for a beverage. It was rather empty, rather cold and rather underwhelming. The barman had all the charisma of a limp carrot and after failing dismally to locate the toilet (we eventually found it upstairs, next to the chaise longue) we took ourselves off home, more determined than ever to visit the Waterfront for a pleasant drinking experience.
