Best memory…
The first day of technical rehearsals when everyone was in costume made me laugh for hours at a time.
Favourite bit of the show…
Mad Hatters Tea Party. I finally got to sit down in the show at the tea party and watch Tony, Eddie and Mark be completely over the top playing the Hatter, the Hare and the Dormouse, often very difficult not to laugh when there is bread flying through the air at you!
