Present Laughter Review

Tracy-Ann Oberman stars as Geri Essendine in this new production of Noel Coward’s celebrated and hilarious portrayal of the temptations and pitfalls of theatrical celebrity.

Geri Essendine is a hugely successful actress (who has been 39 for the best part of a decade). Her personality, wit and charm have earned her a legion of devoted fans, young and old, and a coterie of friends, acquaintances and hangers-on.

Just as she is about to depart for a tour of Australia, Geri finds herself besieged by a bevvy of would-be lovers, not to mention her long-suffering secretary, estranged husband and an obsessed young playwright. Will she ever disentangle herself from their tightening clutches and incessant demands? And deep down, does she really want to…?

Known to millions from iconic roles in EastEnders, Doctor Who and Friday Night Dinner. Tracy-Ann Oberman returns to the stage following her highly acclaimed performance in The Merchant of Venice 1936.

GWR’s newest legendary travel companion is officially named

The quest is complete. After thousands of imaginative entries from customers, young adventurers and dragon fans, Great Western Railway’s newest legendary travel companion finally has a name.

The limited-edition plushie dragon, inspired by GWR's Famous Five and the Dragon Quest campaign, received its new name following a social media competition, with the winning entry chosen by railway historian and broadcaster Tim Dunn.

From fiery and fearsome to magical and marvellous, entries poured in from across the South West and South Wales, making Tim’s decision no easy task.

Introducing Brunella…

Now officially named, Brunella is ready to accompany families on adventures across the network, from seaside escapes in Cornwall to city breaks in Cardiff and everywhere in between.

Tim Dunn said:

“Choosing just one winner was incredibly difficult. There were so many inventive and imaginative entries.

“Brunella stood out as a name perfectly suited to this dragon. Referencing Brunel, one of the legendary figures of GWR’s past, perhaps it’ll introduce curious young minds to the extraordinary stories of Brunella’s namesake too. It’s an absolutely ace name for a little dragon who’s destined for many great adventures.”

GWR Head of Marketing, Helen da Costa, said:

“We were blown away by the response to our competition. The creativity, imagination and enthusiasm shown was fantastic and it was wonderful to see so many people getting involved.

“There were lots of brilliant suggestions and we're delighted to officially welcome Brunella into the GWR family. We look forward to our young adventurers capturing pictures of Brunella at some of the fantastic destinations on our network.”

The limited-edition dragon is available now from the GWR Souvenir Shop, priced £32.
