Review **** A charming piece of dance loosely based on the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. It follows a young couple who re-enact movie scenes to keep their relationship alive, and these scenes are juxtaposed with 2 older dancers who portray Agnes & Walter in later years. The most evocative moments are when all 4 are onstage together. There is an additional performer – a female singer, who does not quite fit in with the pace and style of the rest of the production and I am still in 2 minds whether this part works in not – I am sure different people will have different opinions and please share them if you too have watched this show!
