Hands up anyone who lives in Cardiff and has never been to the Millennium Centre? I went to see the sound of music recently and it just reminded me again that we are so lucky to have this fantastic facilty on our door step.
For those of you may not know, the Millennium Centre in Cardiff Bay delivers better accoustic performance than any London theatre. There is not a flat surface to be seen, the walls jagged construction ensures that sound is transmitted throughout the theatre in absolute purity! And the seats are comfortably. The back stage set up is almost unique in that a complete stage set can be moved in place in one piece from outside without having to be assembled inside.
I just wish that the powers that be could have thought of a better name than the "Millenium Centre". I think that the name "Cardiff" should be within the title so that we can constantly remind the world of the treasure that we have here. Apparantly they are waiting for a sponsor, does anyone know if this is true?
Oh and by the way, Connie Fisher was great as were all of the cast.
