Hairspray
Huddersfield Light Opera Company, Lawrence Batley Theatre
Me and My Girl is perhaps one of the most entertaining shows ever written and I was pleased to see that the Kippax Society found much pleasure in performing it. The casting was good in all roles, Nathan Winn gave us a confident performance as Bill Snibson and Victoria Goff was a very accomplished Sally. I loved Mike Atkinson's portrayal as the very sopish Gerald. The outstanding performance for me was Hayley Harris as Lady Jaquie, her every move was timed to perfection singing and dancing with great style. Brilliant choreography and outstanding costumes and the simple set was effective and easy to manage and the fine orchestra gave us all a most enjoyable night's entertainment.
