Fumiko sends in this brief review:
With a socially distanced audience that seemed quieter than usual, Van was on top form, looking fit and well in a pale blue suit, a change from his usual dark one and delivered a slick beautiful set. Teena great, could hear her lovely bongo and Dana seems to have left. Chantelle Duncan who I've seen before was there instead of Dana. Chris Farlow was support at start. Notably, there was a long drawn out finish with Stand By Me where usually Gloria would be. Very strict about no filming and wearing masks even when sitting with constant reminder from ushers and a placard that we need to pull our mask up after each sip of drink!
