Certainly has, the cogkneys are taking Sunday night at NYE in Corby and we have written a panto, chosen songs and will be expecting some audience participation Smiley ( oh no you're not, oh yes we are...yep we most certainly are!).   Xxx

Well I'm going to see this at the Cresset Theatre in Peterborough: http://cresset.ticketsolve.com/shows/126519469/events - although it's at other venues before that: http://www.easternangles.co.uk/show/BLT/dates.html?id=dXmuEVMo

It's 'Round the Twist or Oliver Nicklefield's Bleak Little Tale of Two Mutual Expectations. And Son.'
"Aspiring Actor and playwright Oliver Nicklefield has been busy working away on a script.Based on his own eventful life story, Oliver is desperate to see his thrilling masterpiece performed in front of an eager audience. Naturally our literary hero will play himself but who will he enlist to flesh out the other Dickensian characters: sneery Obadiah Snoop, delectable Dorabella, feisty Foggoty and the mysteriously hirsute Miss Haversack? Enter the Crumbles family ....."

Of course, I am also seeing the Cogneys at Corby!

There's "Around the World in 80 Days" playing at the Brockley Jack Theatre in London until the 7th. (My cousin is the Director and has promised lots of Steampunk influence...)

The Cogney Panto was fab. Well done to all those who took part. All the hours/minutes/seconds of rehearsals really paid off.

Now during the show there were a couple of camera's filming. Will this be a youtube moment, or can we acquire a fully all singing and dancing DVD. As I am sure no film collection will be complete without one.

I didn't even read the script beforehand.

Mind you, I didn't on the stage either...

I wrote a mummers play some years back, with a Saxon v Viking theme. It featured the chorus, noble hero, evil Viking and drunken "leech". If i re-work it and have an evil genius and mad scientist (perhaps a distressed maiden as well).............sounds like a challenge.

The only downside was that I was thinking in rhyming couplets for days afterwards!

In the jungle town where the sun beats down to the rage of man and beast
The English garb of the English sahib mearly gets a bit more creased.
In Bangkok at 12 o'clock they foam at the mouth and run
But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun.
