Although I think I had seen musicals before it, a local high school production of The Real Inspector Hound that I saw when I was around 12 may have been the first straight play I had ever seen live, so I have a soft spot for the show. It's definitely "light entertainment," but if you are a fan of the old British drawing room mystery and a fan of the theater, I think you will really enjoy it.
Don't read up on it too much; it's best to go in and just go along for the ride. |
