Oh bring us a figgy pudding!
What a fabulous workshop week (Dec 19th – Dec 22nd) we had in the lead up to Christmas with A Pudding for the Chimney Sweep by Kane and Kane.
Everyone had an absolute blast working on this very Victorian story and the show on Friday afternoon was really something special. At times our audience didn’t know whether to laugh or cry (eg: Jim’s tragic ‘run in’ with the machines at Mortimer’s Mill, in which Harry gave such a committed performance that little Ava in the audience was distraught thinking the unspeakable had happened to her beloved brother!)
Congratulations to all our highly spirited and talented cast for your tremendous efforts!
