5* Northern Arts Review
"The fun is packed into every line, every exchange of hats, every press of a button on the sound equipment. It is slapstick at its best from well-seasoned performers. It is not often you can experience an audience ranging from eight-year-olds to octogenarians all crying with laughter at the same thing – but you can experience this down at the Blue Moon Saloon."
Audience Reviews:
"Ye-ha! Mystery of the Blue Moon Saloon. Absolutely brilliant. Amazing character actors, each playing many parts in many hats. It was bound to be fun. What made it exceptional was the way they engaged us. We were encouraged to be outrageous as members of the notorious Appleby Gang, wearing cowboy hats and firing our “guns”. We laughed and clapped as the mystery unfolded. Fab evening. Every one seemed to be leaving with a smile.” - Kirkby Stephen Social Club, Cumbria
"The village hall was bustling on Sunday night for the performance of The Mystery of the Blue Moon Saloon by the talented team Ragged Edge Productions brought to Grasmere by Highlights Rural Touring Scheme. The actors were brilliant at playing several characters at once in a very entertaining story line.
The performance involved audience participation, including recording some of the sound effects, which was great fun, and with guidance and prompts from the actors you actually felt like you were truly contributing and supporting the making of a live radio show. All in all a very entertaining evening, with plenty of laughter along the way! We would definitely recommend seeing the show!” - Grasmere Village Hall, Cumbria
Devised and Performed by Stefan Escreet, Peter Macqueen and Claire Webzell
