(September 26, 2025)Panto Time - Oh Yes It Is!
At a hilarious evening earlier this month we revealed this year's pantomime, Dick Whittington, with Duncan leading us through a reading of a draft version of the script. Please rest assured it did not contain any awful jokes and there was absolutely no innuendo at all ;-) . With that it is nearly time for auditions which will be held on Thursday Oct 2nd, 7pm to 9pm, at Icknield Walk First School (note this has changed since the previous newsletter). These auditions are for the adult principals and anyone over 16 on the day auditions is welcome to come along, please do spread the word. Details of auditions for the junior chorus will follow soon.
In addition to casting we are also looking for help backstage particularly stage crew - please get in contact with [email protected].
