One day, Alastair France asked me if I wanted to be in the chorus of the pantomime his local group, The Harlequins, were doing. I said OK, and went along to the audition - and ended up as the Principal Boy! I also performed in another pantomime (Good Fairy this time) and many smaller productions.
Then I joined Bottisham Players and have fallen into doing whatever is required - costumes, doing the photography, production, painting, poster, programme as well as performing.
I've also performed with Combined Actors in Lady Windermere's Fan, 9-15 April 2002 (photo below). I did the photography for their production of The Browning Version and Harlequinade 8-12 April 2008 (prints) in Peterhouse Theatre. And I did the photography and continuity for their production of Hobson's Choice 10-14 July 2007 (prints); photography for Beauty and the Beast (prints) 5-9 December 2006; My Three Angels (prints) 4-8 July 2006; Humble Boy (prints) 28 March - 1 April 2006; photography and continuity for Hay Fever (prints) (publicity prints), 5-9 July 2005 and photography for Pride and Prejudice, 23-27 March 2004 (all at the ADC Theatre).
And all photography for Bawds production of Dick Barton 15-19 July 2008 (prints) at Corpus Christi playroom. And the photography for their production of Celebration and Monologue 22-26 April 2008 (prints) and David Copperfield 11-15 December 2007 (prints). All photography for their production of Murder is Announced 24-28 July 2007 (prints) - and wardrobe assistant too. Publicity photography for their production of Pygmalion 17-21 April 2007 - and again wardrobe assistant. And the photography for Little Women (prints) 12-16 December 2006. All at the ADC Theatre.
And the photography for Horseshoe Theatre's productions: Folk: Tales from a Fenland Village (The Round Church) 1-4 April 2008. Waiting for Godot 6-10 November 2007. The Caretaker 7-10 February 2007. A Doll's House 7-11 November 2006. All at the Mumford Theatre. All prints
And all the photography and continuity for Pied Pipers' production of Oklahoma! 11-15 March 2008 (prints).
And the photography for The Tempest (prints), 28 June - 2 July 2005 and The Two Gentlemen of Verona, 29 June-3 July 2004 at the Cambridge Arts Theatre. And Fuente Ovejuna July 2006 at the ADC Theatre.
And the photography for Cameo Theatre's Spark in Judea, 2-15 April 2006 and Cell Talk, 2 September - 2 October 2005.
And wardrobe assistant (what, no camera?) for Black and Blue Eyed Productions' Four Nights in Knaresborough, 25-29 September 2007.

And with the Sutton Rhythm and Blues Orchestra (aka the One Rehearsal Band!) as a backing singer for Sutton Feast 2003.
