Sitting Pretty - Amy Rosenthal

Written by Maureen Lipman's daughter. I saw a production by the Loughton Amateur Dramatic Society.
I was impressed by the play - and the production. A tale of an older woman who finds the solution to unemployment related depression by becoming a life model. It describes a journey of self-discovery. She thought she had nothing to offer, but manages to solve the problems of the dysfunctional art class (and their teacher) and in so doing grows in all sorts of new ways herself.
Great to see such a well-written vehicle for several older actresses.
My rating: 8/10
