Darren McAlmont’s Woman In Law 2 played at the National Cultural Centre recently. It was written and produced by McAlmont and directed by Jennifer Thomas. This was literally Part 2 of the play, which was written and performed in two episodes.
The audience had great fun. Many of them were, as is usual these days, vocally involved in the action as they were thrilled by the farce designed for unbridled entertainment which it delivered with high energy, hilarious thrills and audience delight. Clearly, they went to see how the very intriguing story unfolded and to be further regaled by the antics and exploits of the popular characters, and these they were given to their considerable entertainment.
When Woman In Law was presented last year, it was an incomplete play. The dramatic situation was developed with no resolution, since the playwright intended that there would be a Part 2. The trouble with that is that the producer advertised, and the audience would have expected, a full play. No less than that was owed to the audience, but only half of this play was delivered. The second half was contained in Part 2.
