Once again Friendship Theatre Group had a full house of excited children between the ages 1 and 100! This year we were treated to Jack and the Beanstalk and enjoyment was abounding.
The set as ever was lovely and bright, the special effects were plentiful and the costumes delightful. The ensemble were well-rehearsed and the choreography was good, they kept their focus on stage and they made a great sound in the company numbers.
Hannah Beth was a lovely Fairy Sugardust and her evil counter-part Fleshcreep was brilliantly played by Wynne Seaborne. Stephen McDermid gave a nice performance as Squire Moneybags and Sean Davies was gave his usual effervescent and cheeky performance, this time as Snaffle. Stephanie Naylor-Seaborne and Cerys Perkins were fabulous as Buttermilk (which ends they played I cannot tell!) and Rob Green did a great job in the enormous costume of Giant Buster Gut Bucket.
Alan Williams gave the wonderful performance as Dame Dotty Dimple that we have come to expect of this very fine performer with Matthew Tucker taking the title role of Jack beautifully and Daniella Difede giving a lovely performance as Jill. Of course Denys Jenkins was quite wonderful as Denny Twp and as ever brought the house down and was the lynch-pin for the entire show.
Congratulations to the entire company and I look forward to Aladdin next year and the adult panto night!
