THEATRE REVIEW: The Queen Of Hearts starring and written by Andrew Pollard at Greenwich Theatre
WORTH A LOOK?: *****
WHEN?: Saturday 20 November, opens Friday 26 November and booking to 2 January 2022
RUNTIME: 130 minutes (including 20-minute interval)
The best bit of so many highlights in this hilarious, family-friendly pantomime is when 1 character movingly and delicately rebuffs the romantic advances of another to Dionne Warwick’s That’s What Friends Are For and, in a moment worthy of the very best of Morecambe and Wise, Pollard’s Queen Of Hearts breaks the spell with an atrocious harmonica solo in the instrumental break.
