Review: The Good Life on stage

The Good Life is a quintessentially British sitcom from the 1970s that has been reimagined on stage in this witty production. I had never seen or even heard of this TV show, whereas my dad knew it very well, which meant we had quite different reactions to the show - but I will get onto that.

The Good Life review

There are laughs in the show - I laughed a few times and heard plenty of chuckles from the rather small audience on opening night, most I think even older than me - but, given the potential of the script and the talent on stage, this feels like a show that should be a lot better than it is.
