Oh missed out the trip to the Royal exchange costume store to sort out our outfits for The Ghosts of Kirkdale

Thursday 19th June 2014
Well about ten days since the last blog, oops. Went down to London on tuesday the 17th June for an audition for Gary Starr productions for their Show Alice in Wonderland and met Ellis Creez from Katch 22. We had a bit of fun with the group audition and rather nicely we both got parts, i'll be the caterpillar and we will both be the tweedles. Francesca Anderson from Phileas Fogg was also auditioning in a later slot and I was able to meet her for coffee and then later on catch up with Nigel Harvey (ITV Text Santa) too so all round a good day. I also managed to pop into the toy theatre shop in covent garden and bought two nice vintage sets of toy theatre plays for the Waterman and The Smuggler.

We went to see Maleficent last night at the movies in 3D it amazing how quickly you adapt to the 3D as I can't really remember thinking at any point in the movie that the 3D jumped out at me. It was a remarkable film to watch. Beautifully made, odd in that Maleficent had such a back story and wasn't really bad just badly treated.

Work is well on it's way to the house, we are having the whole house re-pointed, which will hopefully smarten the place up a bit.

Nanna has been in hospital but is back out again, she has a clot in her leg which can be of serious concern.

Rehearsals are moving on apace for the ghosts of kirkdale in Liverpool, unfortunately the writer has been taken ill, so not sure what effect that will have on the show, it will be a huge disappointment for her I'm sure if she can't get to see her show performed.
