I would love to see this show become available on video. This is Emma Thompson before she became a big movie star: an incredibly funny, quirky comedienne, a great dancer (yep!), a totally engaging presence, bursting with creativity and supported by a great cast including then-husband Kenneth, and her friends from her Cambridge days. A sheer delight!
