Round and Round the Garden at the Ahmanson
Theatre review notes Ayckbourn’s Round and Round the Garden the third piece in The Norman Conquests. The Garden shifts action outdoors and centers Ken Howard and Carole Shelley with strong comic timing while Richard Benjamin’s Norman provides lighter moments. The critic questions if the trilogy’s third part earns its liveable pace and suggests more plot might lie ahead.
