The theatre show, "Mrs. Goggins - The Truth," promised on its poster and in the publicity blurb that it was a fantastic show that promised not to disappoint. However, it has not lived up to its promise.
The musical, which tells the life story of fictional shopkeeper Mrs. Goggins from Postman Pat, portrays her past as a gangland enforcer on the run from the police. Eventually, she finds peace of a kind in Greendale but is always looking over her shoulder. The show promised to deliver more than it actually did.
The cast includes an actor and actress who were somewhat famous thirty years ago, and the songwriting team is known for writing songs for Chesney Hawkes (no, not that song).
One disappointed theatregoer, Mr. Bitterley, shared his experience: "The tickets were £80.00 each, and we could barely see the stage. But since the poster claimed that the show was guaranteed not to disappoint, I decided to go. It's an expensive lesson, but at least now I know that some theatre posters lie."
Who would have thought, eh?
