点评:Went to see the panto with my kids and really enjoyed it again as good as if not better than 2024. Valerin the vicious was superb as was the Morgan character. My kids loved them. Less so for us was Valerin's mum. I also went to a few performances over the last 5 years or so and think the acting in the main is really good for an amateur group and is slowly improving over the years. 12th night was very promising. Sandcastles was a hoot the actor who played William Patterson was great as were Stan and Doug. Found the Mrs. Penfold character less so. Calendar girls was amazing the stand out being the lady who played Chris. Found the characters Marie (very shouty actress) and Ruth (still learning and it was clear) The set of The People in the autumn was astounding - was really impressed with this but the Stacpool sister duo were very stiff and stilted actors I thought and lines appeared to be delayed .... maybe a bad night not sure. One thing you do notice is that there are always the same old faces on the stage at Thame compared to other community theatres in Oxford city and across Buckinghamshire for example.
not sure if they struggle to get actors/ directors (no idea ) but feel like it could do with getting some fresh acting/ directing blood in.. That said its a gem of a place, lovely support staff and very cosy and loving the increase in the music acts.. which have been fab too. Advice to management:
Lovely premises and staff on bar/ door etc..
Get new and strong actors/ directors in - this place is a marvel waiting to happen and for a community theatre is a joy to visit.. maybe cast your net wider for talent.
Advertise more - lots of people have no idea its there or what is available to see
翻译:带着孩子们去看了哑剧,再次欣赏到精彩的演出,感觉和2024年的那场一样好,甚至更好。恶毒的瓦莱林和摩根的角色都非常出色,孩子们很喜欢。不过,瓦莱林的妈妈这个角色我们不太喜欢。过去五年左右,我也看过几场演出,觉得对于一个业余剧团来说,他们的表演总体来说已经很不错了,而且这些年来也在不断进步。第十二晚的演出非常令人期待。《沙堡》这部剧非常搞笑,饰演威廉·帕特森的演员很棒,斯坦和道格的表演也很精彩。相比之下,彭福德太太这个角色就逊色一些。《日历女郎》非常精彩,饰演克里斯的那位女士表现尤为突出。玛丽(演员嗓门很大)和露丝(显然还在学习中)这两个角色也让人不太满意。《秋日里的人们》的布景令人叹为观止——我对此印象深刻,但是斯塔克普尔姐妹的表演非常僵硬生硬,台词似乎也有些拖沓……也许是那天晚上状态不好,我也不确定。你会注意到,与牛津市和白金汉郡的其他社区剧院相比,泰姆剧院的舞台上总是那几张老面孔。
我不确定他们是否难以招到演员/导演(我不清楚),但感觉他们确实需要一些新鲜的演员/导演。话虽如此,这里仍然是个宝地,工作人员很友善,环境也很温馨,而且我很喜欢这里不断增加的音乐演出,这些演出也都很棒。给管理层的建议:
剧院环境优美,酒吧/门口等工作人员也很棒。
招募一些优秀的新演员/导演——这里潜力无限,作为一家社区剧院,这里绝对值得一去。或许你们应该扩大招聘范围。
加大宣传力度——很多人根本不知道这里有这么个地方,也不知道有哪些演出。
