Actors don the cloak of madness

Beenleigh Theatre Group presents Cosi, a play by Louis Nowra
Review by Bernie Dowling

THE comedy Cosi is a very funny play and in the capable hands of the 
ensemble company of Beenleigh Theatre Group, the humour abounded at Saturday’s matinee to satisfy a vocally appreciative audience.
