Description:
About Victoria Wood
The tragic early passing of Victoria Wood was unquestionably a
huge loss to the entertainment industry. The Evening
Standard’s comment remains true:
Victoria Wood is (sic) the reigning queen of comedy … the
funniest woman in Britain, the Albert Hall record-breaker, the
top of her tree … her comic brilliance is rooted in the fact
that I am her, or rather she is me, just as she is every other
woman in her record-breaking audiences … her comedy is
universal” Evening Standard
About the workshop
In celebration of Victoria Wood’s talent and comedic genius
we’ve decided to spend an evening reading one of her plays.
We have copies of scripts for 3 plays: TALENT, GOOD FUN and
PAT AND MARGARET. This is a relaxed evening to enjoy
Victoria at her best. Come along to read or listen. This is not
an audition, we’re intending to giggle, laugh and have fun!
