The second time the group went to the theatre was to see the Ashbourne drama teacher performing at the Greenwich playhouse. The play was based on a German farce called ‘Mr Kolpert’. The play was an absurdist melodrama centering around the interactions between two married couples and the mysteriously absent Mr Kolpert. It was hugely farcical and comical but also quite dark and menacing at times. It was very special for the group to see their teacher acting so well. |
