‘Allo ‘Allo is an Incredible Night of Comedy, You’ll Love it

Listen to Me very Carefully, I shall say this only Once: Prepare for an evening of laughter and delight as the Penarth Operatic and Dramatic Society (PODS) presents ‘Allo ‘Allo 2: The Camembert Caper. Directed with ingenuity by Alex Wilson, this production is "A Roaring Success" that captures the essence of the beloved BBC series ‘Allo ‘Allo while adding its own unique charm. This is truly "A Fantastic Family Night Out" for audiences of all ages.

The story unfolds in a whirlwind of comedic chaos, as René, the quick-witted café owner, and his wife Edith, embark on a mission to help two stranded British airmen return to the UK. Of course, nothing is ever simple, and their efforts entangle them in a hilariously perilous scheme involving hapless Nazis, a cantankerous mother-in-law, a mysterious undertaker, and an array of eccentric characters.

Phill Loveless shines as René, delivering a standout performance that strikes every comic beat. His cheeky winks to the audience and pantomime-esque antics create a connection that leaves the audience roaring with laughter. It’s a testament to the "Exceptionally Talented Cast" who bring every moment of the production to life with energy and precision. From start to finish, the ensemble delivers impeccable comedic timing and unforgettable performances.

Without spoiling the surprises, one particular highlight – the Can-Can scene – guarantees you’ll be talking about it long after the curtain falls. Moments like this showcase why PODS remains a jewel in Penarth’s cultural crown.

For those intrigued by the creative process behind this marvel, don’t miss the audio interview with director Alex Wilson, available Here. It’s a fascinating listen for anyone curious about the artistry involved.

Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan should be justifiably proud of PODS for delivering such a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable production. ‘Allo ‘Allo 2: The Camembert Caper is an evening of joy, laughter, and nostalgia, executed with flair and fun.
