Not a rodent problem - this
refers to the Agatha Christie play currently on tour to celebrate its sixtieth year
in the West End, seen tonight at the recently refurbished Forum Theatre in
Billingham, which I found impressive with its well-appointed auditorium and its
purposeful bar (lacking ambiance but spacious with plenty of seating); the play
itself was enjoyable with polished performances, though inevitably dated to the
modern audience (who are used to seeing current TV crime dramas that took up
the baton from Christie and developed, over six decades, a highly sophisticated
art form), but here the point was to see the legendary production, clearly famous
for its longevity rather than its dramatic impact.
