  As the curtain fell on The Mousetrap at Milton Keynes on Monday, the unmasked murderer stepped forward to tell the audience we were now all partners in crime. “We ask you to keep the secret of who
  dunnit closely in your hearts.”

  THE vigorous copulation that begins Frankie and Johnny In the Clair de Lune might be deemed rather shocking for audiences.

  Just when you thought Oxford was sufficiently endowed with theatrical companies, along comes another to add to the mix — and the founders promise that this one will be refreshingly different.

  Famous as a radio presenter, comedian and novelist, Sandi Toksvig possesses yet another side to her exuberant talents, as a writer for the stage. After supplying the book for the musical Big Night
  Out and co-authoring the comedy Pocket Dreams, she next turned her attention to serious drama. Bully Boy, which studies the effect of wars on those we send to fight them, opened to critical acclaim
  in Southampton last year. With the same two-strong cast — the hugely respected Anthony Andrews and charismatic newcomer Joshua Miles — it is at Northampton’s Royal&amp;Derngate before moving to
  London where it will open the new St James Theatre, Victoria, on September 18.

           <description><![CDATA[
  Though Terry Johnson’s Hysteria was named Best Comedy in the 1994 Olivier Awards, the play is not exactly, well, hysterical. Unlike Johnson’s next success Dead Funny, which supplies what the title
  appears to promise, Hysteria — skilfully revived under the direction of its author — is only fitfully amusing. I laughed about as often as its protagonist Sigmund Freud tells us he did on a visit
  to Ben Travers’s Rookery Nook: four times, he says, with characteristic precision.

           <title>Victoria Revealed:Kensington Palace</title>
           
           <link>http://www.oxfordtimes.co.uk/leisure/archive/theatre_art/9887540.Victoria_Revealed_Kensington_Palace/?ref=rss</link>
           
           
           <description><![CDATA[
  As part of the £12m revamp of Kensington Palace recently unveiled, a new permanent exhibition explores the life and reign of one of the palace’s most famous residents, Britain’s longest reigning
  monarch, Queen Victoria. There are four new visitor routes inside the palace. Victoria Revealed is one. Showing more than 300 items, it tells the story of Victoria as princess, queen, wife, mother
  and widow. By and large, it does so in her own words, quoting from her diaries — an assiduous diary writer, she began a journal aged 12 — her letters to Prince Albert, to ministers and so on. In
  the room where Victoria is thought to have been born, we see childhood clothes, dolls and toys, among them her black silk baby shoes, a toy carriage, and a collection of dolls modelled on court
  ladies and stage idols. Victoria is mostly remembered as a matronly figure, in mourning for much of her reign. But the first dress she wore as a monarch and her ivory silk wedding dress (on show
  for the first time in a decade) reveal a diminutive figure with a tiny waistline. The restored Red Saloon displays the plain (originally) black dress with white muslin collar that the 18-year-old
  Victoria wore when she attended her first official Privy Council meeting on June 20, 1837, the first document she approved as monarch, signed ‘Victoria R’, and a cabinet of her jewellery. A
  soundscape tells us that Victoria “went through the whole ceremony . . . with perfect calmness . . . and graceful modesty.” Paintings include the ‘secret’ portrait Victoria had made for her beloved
  Albert as a birthday present: German artist Franz Xaver Winterhalter’s (1845) portrayal shows an alluring young woman, bare shouldered and hair down. In a later Winterhalter portrait (1856) she
  wears a bright red dress and magnificent brooch in which is set the 1,000-year-old Koh-i-noor diamond. Wearing red was unusual for Victoria, for she favoured black even before Prince Albert’s death
  in 1861.
