It was fun joining a group of Cathedral “bachelors” (with Tricia away, I managed to slip in under that category) for a meal at the British Club followed by the play by JB Priestley An Inspector Calls, put on by the Manama Theatre Club. It was my first experience of am dram, apart from schools productions, in Bahrain and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the acting and the stage set was very impressive The suspense was held to the end to the final telephone call announcing that ‘the police are coming’. Thanks to Andrew Petty for arranging it. |
