LOUD HAILERS...Better Late Than Never...!

Here are pictures from the performances of my play " Loud Hailers!"...directed at CTC by Jenny and Paul....and performed by a great mix of Adult/Youth Theatre ..all this was last month....BUT better posted now than never! 

Above is the lovely painting..... which was a key part of my story...flowers in Suffragette colours...purple, green, white...painted by friend Sue. 

Loved it.

Delighted to welcome Chester MP Chris Matheson and his family to a performance. 

Here he is....at back but smiling!....with cast and myself...plus our painting AND angry Suffragette slogans. 

SO ENJOYED DOING THIS!!! 

A TENSE MOMENT! 

Scottish Suffragette Mary Philips ( played superbly by Alison ) is arguing with 2 arrogant policeman about her arrest....after attempting to flour bomb PM Asquith at Chester Town Hall...

Mary is supported by an elegant Emmeline Pankhurst...performed in dignified but determined fashion by Anne! 

I think they particularly enjoyed wearing their hats! 

THIS is the real Mary Phillips...being arrested. 

Strong Women! 

BTW I have just bought an amazing book for Grandaughter A:

 "GOODNIGHT STORIES FOR REBEL GIRLS! by Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo. 

I wish someone had bought ME this when I was 9!!

In Rehearsal: Wide Age Range ...but great for ALL concerned!

Watching: Some of my family...plus Friend From The North (L)...and m'self.
