If July was a bit tricky finding a production, August was probably even more difficult.

We’re probably not planning enough in advance, especially as we’re starting to run out of local ‘new’ venues to attend.

But we found one…

Production: Things We Do For Love

Venue: Southwold Theatre

The play, written by Alan Ayckbourn, first performed in 1997 centres on a love triangle between two women and a man.

Southwold Theatre holds around 180, nice little place, serves beer and ice cream.

As for the play, we quite liked it, well written, only four characters, all really good. Great acting, funny in places and staged really well on a small budget.

Goes straight in at number three!

1. An Inspector Calls
2. Dracula
3. Things We Do For Love
4. Charley’s Aunt
5. 1984
6. Metamorphosis 
7. Shakespeare Revisited
8. Edgeland

‘Strange Houses’ by Uketsu

Wasn’t entirely sure what to expect with this one. It starts with a floor plan that is ‘off’ somehow, and then descends into a strange sinister story that includes murder and a family curse.

I really liked the first half of the book, very interesting. Then it all starts to get very confusing and far-fetched.

In the end it left me feeling slightly disappointed.
