“Caught in the Net”; Ribchester Amateur Theatrical Society (RATS)


A WONDERFUL Ray Cooney farce, written and set at the turn of the millennium, this was bang up- to-date, fast-paced, quite racy and very funny modern comedy at its


best. Director David Procter is to be


congratulated for daring to think that he could stage a play requir- - ing, as producer Sara Gollinge states in her programme notes, “one set, two houses, two different families on stage at the same time, seven (1) doors and entrances and exits which would make a Feydeau farce seem slow!” I t is a tribute to his confidence


and the ability of his cast to pull this off, that I would suggest the great majority of the almost sell­ out audiences in the Parochial Hall in Ribchester, would have been totally unaware of the backstage logistics, and gymnastics, needed to ensure that the frenetic mayhem on stage was so slickly performed. Special congratulations must go


to the set designers and construc­ tors, John Sharpies and Alex Milne. As Sara says they were “the unsung heroes whose attention to detail was amazing”. They could now sell this set to many a TV pro­ duction company to show how doors and walls don’t need to sway in spite of excessive door banging! The action of the play revolves


around loveable rogue and taxi­ driving bigamist, John Leonard Smith, with one family in Streatham, and another in Wim­ bledon, superbly played by Guy Mason, desperately trying to keep his two lives from colliding, and, subsequently, his two wives from colluding. This task is made Her­ culean when his son and his daugh­ ter, by the two different wives, of course, date via the Internet and

are determined to meet up and dis cuss their respective fathers wh( just happen to have the sami namel The increasingly farcical twist


and turns in the plot to ensure tha- this does not happen fall mainly oi the broad but bewildered shoulder of John’s best mate and lodgei Stanley Gardner, a virtuoso per formance from Rob Hindle, whosi main intention is, supposedly, t( get his ageing and rather confuset (and who could blame him!) fathe: to Felixstowe for a holiday. As por trayed by Robin Simmons, Stan ley’s Dad has some of the best one liners in the play and Robin’s tim ing was superb. The Smith wives, veggie Bar

Gavin, were certainly not outshom in this excellent ensemble anc Rachel Ruddcx:k and Jamie Bain who have both come through the “Academy” of the Young Rats were first rate in these parts and: tribute to the work that the socie ty has done over many years witl young people in its care. I will not give away the conclu


sion of the play. I would merely saj that, in true Ccxjney style, a happj ending is arrived at. For a farce o this type to work and be believabli it must be quick, energetic, zanj and engage the audience fully. Toj marks to Dave Procter and hi: cast, who ticked all the boxes. Special mention must go to Rol


and Guy, who bounced off eacl other, sometimes physically as wel as metaphorically, and fed eacl other selflessly and with excellen timing in a production to remem her.
