What a pleasure it was to attend Dynamo Youth Theatre’s Wild West Pantomime Adventure in St. Faith’s Church Hall! 62 young people aged 11 – 18 years presented “Old Mother Hubbard” by Paul Reakes.
These talented youngsters were supported by a team of adult helpers, who had been working together on the production for three months, including the Christmas holidays. This was the first pantomime that the company had produced since it’s founding in 1981 and it was probably the first time the stage had been used in fifty years.
The show excelled in the chorus numbers which were brilliantly choreographed and exuberantly sung.
The scenery, lighting and costumes were superb and reflected much hard work by all concerned.
The direction, under the overall charge of Dynamo’s founder, Andrew Bowker and Sam Chilcott was divided up between many of the members, providing valuable experience for the future.
Havant is fortunate to have such a wonderful organisation and we wish it every success as it celebrates its thirtieth year.
