Journey to the Past
AUG 2024
Direction: Imogen Collins
Choreography: Alice Jewell
It’s always a pleasure to visit Act 1. I am greeted fondly, given a very smart programme and escorted to my seat. Little did I know I was in for a treat.
It’s nice to see new works that are written by the group and Imogen Collins and Reuben Thorpe, who I must say had nearly all the comedy lines and boy did he let us know he was in charge. Well done to you and Imogen for writing a great musical review.
Class 24601 was made up of about 15 young ladies and two other men. Why is it so difficulty to get men to perform? Choreographer, Alice Jewell certainly gave them some tricky choreography, executed to a high standard, even a tap routine - nice.
All the cast gave us a well-chosen selection of theatrical songs arranged by Felicity Blackwell from ‘Gypsy ‘to ‘Jamie,’ and the cast did them proud. Sound, lighting, costumes, stage management were all swiftly executed professionally. All in all a very entertaining evening was had, by all of your audience and they showed it.
Thank you Act 1.
