Under the Blue Sky - 21 August
Our long sold out Outing to Under the Blue Sky at the Duke of York’s theatre last night (21 August) was a huge success, with a complete cast turn out for the Q&A which was attended by almost all of our Theatregoers as well as a special guest, Catherine Tate’s mother.
Comprising of three interlinked stories, Under the Blue Sky follows three couples, all of whom teach at the same school, and all of whom have difficult and fractured relationships. Running at 90 minutes with no interval, our Theatregoers were able to make the most of a post show Question and Answer sessions, for which we were very happy to be joined by director Anna Mackmin, writer David Eldridge, and all six members of the cast - Chris O’Dowd, Lisa Dillon, Catherine Tate, Dominic Rowan, Francesca Annis and Nigel Lindsay.
Amoung the topics discussed were getting over stage-fright, reasons why the cast chose to get involved with the production, and David Eldridge shared his thoughts about seeing one of his earlier plays revived. Look out for edited highlights of the Q&A to be posted in the news section shortly.
Please do feel free to email your comments and thoughts about the play and the evening through to feedback@whatsonstage.com, or why not contribute your own review of the show?

Thanks again to all who came last night, see you next time!

Thank you for posting some photos from the Q&A. It was a very good session, made better by some good questions from both Terri and the audience. A big thank you to WhatsOnStage for putting on the event and to David, Anna and the actors for all staying - it was really great to see everyone there.
