Over the last few weeks we have shared some wonderful, and flattering, headshots of all the cast and crew. None of these would have existed without Mark’s generous time, effort and talents. All he wanted in return was some publicity, which is easy as I’d highly recommend him for portraits, headshots, family photos etc so do please share. We look forward to welcoming again at the theatre to take our dress rehearsal acting shots 😃.
Well done also to our photogenic team members who have made it on to his advert as well 😃🎭📸 Carol Cordall Mary Richardson Abi Aversa Nee Burgess Luke Neil Hastings

And finally…

Meet the star of our show, Caitlin, who plays Ellie, the equivalent to Annie.

Caitlin has worked her socks off throughout this production, never missing a rehearsal, taking on board all our comments and knowing her lines impeccably - and trust me she has a lot.

She plays the role with charm, charisma and just the right amount of cheekiness. The audience will love her from the start.

Our penultimate character today! Daniel plays the role of Jake Dean, who, after much coercion agrees to take feisty foster kid Ellie under his wing, initially to help his fast plummeting career. However Ellie stirs up all kinds of emotion and shows Jake what is truly important in life.

This character is the equivalent to Oliver Warbucks in the original show, but our leading male is a successful actor, not a politician - he still gets to meet the Prime Minister though. 😃

I cannot tag this family so please do share with them if you can. 😃

Today we introduce Danica, who is playing Violet Greene, our Grace Farrell equivalent.

Danica adds class, charm, assertiveness and a little bit of wit to this role, thus encompassing this nurturing, if not slightly lost, character perfectly.

Still a few tickets remaining but do get in quick. They won’t be there for long 😃.

Today we introduce the lovely Gracie, who is playing Lula - our version of Miss Hannigan - a villain, or is she? You can decide that for yourselves!

When I wrote this character, I used elements of both Carol Burnett from the original film, and Cameron Diaz from the more modern one, thus creating a brand new character, as their portrayals were totally different. Of course, at the time I didn’t know who would be playing the part, so it was quite a complex role to convey.

I needn’t have worried, Gracie’s own take on this troubled children’s home manager has been very inspiring, and she has organically made Lula her own, as it if the part was created just for her. It’s been a pleasure watching her bring my writing to life. 😃
