Review by The Wee Ghostie. For this theatre starved critic, in the time of Covid, the opportunity to see a new comedy written by one of Scotland’s top comedy writers, Johnny McKnight, and starring Maureen Beattie live from the Gaiety Theatre, Ayr, was too much to miss.Sure, this was going to be online, but it was live, and it ticked all the boxes; quality writer, quality star, and directed by Jack Nurse (of the innovative and exciting company Wonder Fools), and it was also utilising actors from local amateur companies to give it additional community box office pull.There was a challenge here.Theatre lovers have been forced to get their fix by going online to seek out recorded performances from all over the world and have become used to.
