Three Men in a Boat

Pea Green Theatre Group—Alloway Hall (MMMN)

I have watched a few British comedies in my life and admittedly, I don’t get some of the humour. Three Men in a Boat looks like it could easily have been a program on the BBC, complete with the British humour that often eludes me. The audience laughed quite a bit, so I assume everyone got it but me.

Another reason it looks like it could have come out of British broadcasting is because of the precision and the expertise of the acting. These actors are as tight as it gets.

Throughout the numerous shows I’ve seen to date this year, singing has been a problem for many shows. Not so here—these three chaps deliver the best vocals and harmony I’ve heard so far. I just wish there were more songs in the show.
