Eating humble pie

I’ve always been a bit disdainful of seeing performances by local theatrical groups – I mean we have the National Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Company virtually on our doorstep! However I have to admit that the performance of The Winter’s Tale by St Albans company OVO was marvellous and (whispers) far more enjoyable than the production of the same play I saw at the Globe a couple of years ago!

So if you live in the area, I’d really recommend that you check out our own home grown talent.
