His daughter Jill (Leigh Perry) and her love interest Colin (James Milne) were a good combination. The company should be extremely proud to have someone so talented.
MOTHER GOOSE CLUB GHOST FAMILY HOW TO
This actor knows how to work an audience and really did make this panto rather special. Mother Goose was acted by the very talented Graham Pipe, who gave an excellent performance. Wardrobe mistress Jenny Higgins and Scenery designers Alan Roast and Jane Smith are to be congratulated. I also have to say that the backcloths and scenery was spot on with some great lighting in each scene, especially for the Land of Discontent. This production had great costumes and fine characters, something that we have come to now expect from this group. I’m not sure he would have got ‘ Panto Baddie of the Year’ but nonetheless a good attempt.

I loved the red light stage left, as the Demon came on. A credible performance was given by the two of them which helped the story along. The prologue was between Fairy Friendship (Rona Shone) and Demon Discontent (Charlie Willett), they both got the audience cheering and booing from the start. We had good and evil a family about to be evicted by a greedy squire and his bailiffs a king and queen and best of all a fantastic goose called Priscilla.(Debbie Irby) For 2019, Michelle Bacon, an award winning NODA director, had chosen a very traditional pantomime with all the ingredients needed to give the audience plenty to be totally immersed in. It is always a delight to be asked to come and review a show at this friendly drama club.
