Our evening at Globus Theatre/LAB exceeded our expectations! Having attended a few dinner theatres we didn’t know what to expect being held in a barn & during Stage 3 of Covid. Well they hit it out of the ball park!! From great food with 3 selections to appeal to the majority, seamless staff, fully stocked bar & a hilarious show written by one of the actors! It started with us being greeted at the door & having our temperatures taken. Tables were distanced in a rustic but elegant setting, staff were attentive & delivered courses with just enough time between each. Tables were ushered into the theatre individually with ease where seating was arranged maintaining more then the mandated social distancing. Kama Sutra was performed on a stage with two sets a living room & bedroom with few costume changes. Sara Quick & James Barrett brought to life Lynda & Bobs’ marriage from arriving home from work to life in the sack as a middle aged couple with 20yrs under their belt with humour & wit! All from a mistaken library book these two performers nailed what life is like while giving their audience some much needed belly laughter during these unprecedented times! Well done!!!
