As promised in my last post, here are some more photos from Mayflower Productions' new
Santa Trap stage show, created by
Robin Belfield and Simon Slater. The show is adapted from the
picture book of the same name, written by me and illustrated by
Poly Bernatene.
I greatly enjoyed seeing the first half of the show in rehearsals
back in September and can't wait to see the finished production in Portsmouth later this month.

The three secretaries (Eloise Secker, Lauren Storer and Josh Sneesby) only appear on one page of
the picture book, but play a much bigger role in the stage show. |

| The show's music is performed live by the talented cast. |

The Santa Trap will play for three days (13-15 December 2015) at the
Plough Arts Centre in Torrington, before its main Christmas run at the
New Theatre Royal in Portsmouth (Sat 19 December to Sun 3 January 2016).
I'll be seeing the show at the New Theatre Royal in Portsmouth. The theatre has has just been re-opened after a 3 year rebuild and refurbishment. Doesn't it look gorgeous!

As I said, I can't wait to see the show, but for a less than enthusiastic (downright rude) response, check out
Bradley Bartleby's Twitter page.
