14/11/08 - A real whodunit

This evening saw me at Ripon Leisure Centre to review The Late Edwina Black for Ripon Rowel Players.

Written In the style of a Victorian melodrama, this four-hander, performed by Graham North, Linda Blades, Josie Suddards and Steve Barlow and produced by Marguerite Moss, opened on the eve of the eponymous deceased’s funeral.  Then a Scotland Yard inspector arrived on the scene.  His insistence on a post-mortem marked the beginning of a series of twists and turns, noises off and doubt over whether Edwina Black had actually died.  I was kept guessing until the very end, which had to be a good sign.

My full review should be appearing soon in the Ripon Gazette and its sister newspapers.
