Casino Royale Variety Performance

Today at college we had the privilege of viewing a fantastic variety performance from the cast of the up and coming performance of Casino Royale (not the James Bond film).  The stage was set as a casino, where in the middle of the stage the was a roulette wheel where the man with the light would spin it around and it would land on a number where there would be a performance completely different from the last. There was singing and dancing and a few random sketches. The performances were really camp: It was like Fame and Pineapple dance studios put together. Plus Wagbo!!!!!!
Performances:
The camp lion taming sketch was hilarious. There were 2 lion tamers called Hansel and Grettle who were insanely camp and absolutely hilarious. They were like Bruno and Louis Spence. There was so many innuendos it was totally hilarious; I was in stitches.
The performance of 'Big spender' was extremely saucy ;) There was lots of girls dancing wearing very little. They did a tribute to Abba by singing Money,money,money which was dressed down (or dressed up compared to other performances) with the most fantastic harmonies.
There was a man who pretended to be Mr. Bean. He didn't look much like him but he copied Rowan Atkinson's expressions really well and started to do his Mr. Boombastic dance which was fantastic.
There was tap and indian dancing. They were very good dancers but the noises of the tapping and jingly things totally did my head in!
I recommend that go and see the show because you will be amazed and in stitches. It's brilliant!!
