Chris Eaton (waving!), Shirley Anne Field - Snow Queen (far right)
They are in the first week of rehearsals for THe Snow Queen (as of 16 Dec 2005). Early days yet but tech is getting ready (doing all the technical stuff for the first time - sound, lights, actors tech etc.).
The Snow Queen opens in Brighton at the Roedean Theatre (a quiet little college theatre) with a few public performances on Friday 6th and Sat 7th January 2006 before going on a short tour to Birmingham (Birmingham Alex Theatre week beginning 9th January 2006), Manchester (Manchester Opera House week beginning 23rd January 2006).
All this is a try out for a much bigger tour next Christmas. There might be some performances in a big top tent again before that. Get the word out if you can. This info will also be listed in Tour Dates for your convenience.
Cast includes:
Shirley Anne Field (Snow Queen)
Clare Wilkie (Robber Girl)
Michael Offei (Rudi the Dudi)
Sam Bloom (Kay)
Also continuing is work on Strange Kind of Hero for later this year.
