Twyford’s traditional panto The Pied Piper of Hamelin is really coming together, with the talented cast already well-versed in their lines and moves, reports the hard-working Twyford Drama group.
The show opens next weekend, at Loddon Hall.
“We are enjoying some really entertaining rehearsal evenings as we gradually piece the show together in jigsaw puzzle fashion,” said a spokesperson.
“Scenery has been designed and is in the process of being painted, and props are being expertly prepared. Custard pies are made and ready for launch.
“Our skilled wardrobe team has finely tuned costumes; these remarkably enhance our characters’ individual personae.
“Photographs have been taken and have been converted into clever social media publicity images by our talented graphic designer. Posters and banners have been proudly hung in and around Twyford to advertise the event.
“We are very nearly ready.”
Rob Yeadon of Twyford Together has kindly provided 11 umbrellas sponsored by his company Benedict Charles Financial Planning. These will be used in the group’s own rendition of Singing in the Rain.
“We value and appreciate this community support: Twyford is certainly ‘coming together’ for our January extravaganza,” said the spokesperson.
“The Pied Piper of Hamelin is undoubtedly going to be a very fun-filled and lively production and there is still time to grab yourself a really good seat.
“Typically, ticket sales take off after Christmas, so why not get in first. We look forward to entertaining you.”
Matinee performances are at 2pm on Saturday, January 14 and Sunday, January 15. Evening performances are at 7.45pm on Friday, January 13 and at 7pm on the Saturday.
