Actor/Manager? I’ve now appeared in all three of our current tours to keep the show up to full strength – and the curtain up! Over Christmas it was Dad in DANNY THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD; I had to race down to Tunbridge Wells to cover Dr Dee in HORRIBLE HISTORIES when the actor hurt his leg – on this occasion it was too early in the tour for the understudy to go on; and last week it was Billy Bones in TREASURE ISLAND. There’s no better way of knowing what is required for each tour than to spend some time back stage once the tour is up and running. And on all three occasions I came away utterly impressed with all involved.
A new trailer for TREASURE ISLAND will be posted soon – and it looks great!
