We worked around the house most of the morning. We departed for the theater at 11:00 We headed to Season’s 52 in Costa Mesa to have lunch with Bob and Donna… That means loads of giggles. We have 12:00 reservations so we had plenty of time to laugh!
We crossed the street to South Coast Repertory (SCR) to see “One Man, Two Guvnors”.
Summary: Gleeful critics have cheered from London (“deliriously daft and diabolically joke-stuffed”— Independent) to New York (“splendidly silly”—The New York Times) over this delicious farce set in swinging ’60s Brighton. Francis, a failed washboard player with an insatiable appetite, finds himself in the employ of both Roscoe, who is really his own twin sister (in disguise), and Stanley, a well-bred twit (who actually killed the real Roscoe). And that’s only the beginning! In this adaptation of The Servant of Two Masters, food flies, pants drop and madness abounds, to the tunes of a live band (minus its washboard).
After the play we all went to Leatherby’s for a drink and appetizers. They… Homeward to do to treadmill!
