Theatre

I had a couple of trips to the theatre during October to see The Wipers Times and The Messiah, both at the Rep in Birmingham. The Wipers Times is about a newspaper that was published in the trenches in the first World War. It is co-written by Ian Hislop and was very good. The Messiah was also very good about a group of three travelling players who were Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), John Marquez (PC Penhale in Doc Martin) and Lesley Garrett.
