WHAT a terrific performance of As You Like It in St Leonards Gardens last weekend.
The production somehow managed to recreate how Shakespeare's plays would have been at the time they were written – for ordinary people to enjoy rather than just the cultured elite.

Much Ado About Nothing:
...leaving me and mine to attend a charming al fresco ambulatory performance of Much Ado in Random-on-Sea's delightful gardens at dusk. I'd assumed I'd have to bribe the children to watch, but they were instantly hooked, following the players round the park, booing at Don John. Stealthily, running around out of doors at bedtime accessorised with chocolate while the cast plays "Spanish Eyes" on Spanish guitars as the sun disappears… and lo, verily the fine folk of Random quietly congratulated themselves on their great good fortune.
