One of my other passions aside from web development is acting.

I belong to the Blackmore Players although am contemplating finding a new group as now I am living in Colchester it’s a bit of a trek! However, I recently auditioned for the Blackmore Players panto for January 2010 and was left without a part. In light of the new roadworks at Witham on the A12 I saw this as a blessing!

Due to my height being only 5’3” and being of slim build, I tend to always audition for principle girl or one of the comedy duo – and over the last few years have had a good time in those parts!

However, a few nights ago I received an email from the Producer asking if I would step into the breech as the woman playing principle boy had pulled out. So last night I attended my first rehearsal playing a part I never thought I would get!

I am now looking forward to attending rehearsals as we do tend to have a rather fun time before taking it seriously for the actual performance!

If anyone is interested in coming along to any of out performances, have a look at the Blackmore Players website for ticket details.
