Stromness Drama Club December Show 2014 - The Snow Queen
At the recent SDC Committee meeting it was decided that we should put on a pantomime for our December 2014 show. David Fidler has agreed to be the main Director, with assistance from both volunteers and conscripted helpers.
The panto is to be 'The Snow Queen'. Below is a list of the characters involved and details of a read-through and informal auditions will be advertised in late summer. Please pass this on to anyone you think may be interested.
The full script will be available later as it is in the process of being adapted to Stromnessify it!
