Private Lives

On the college trip to Bath we were able to watch Private Lives playing at the Theatre Royal. This is a play about two couples on their honeymoon who run into their ex's. It is set in the 1920/30s and it is a comedy.
The acting was great in this production and I liked the set since I thought it reflected the life style and setting of the characters well. The costumes reflect the era of the production and I was able to identify it easily. I did not enjoy the storyline as much since it just consisted of constant fighting, though I did find some elements amusing.
The inside of the theatre was beautiful with its large chandelier and decorative ceiling that provided some inspiration for rosemaling patterns for the Embellishment project due to the scrolling patterns.
