Our Day Out

St Philip`s are to be congratulated on their latest junior show `Our Day Out`.  Performing   at a new venue  which proved to be most welcoming.  With a super well designed set and great use of milk crates.  Margaret Stansfield led a small but well run orchestra, sound was just right.

Emily  Kirwin   was very good as Mrs Kay, the teacher of the Progress  Class,  as she tries  to control them on their trip to Wales. Helped  by  Ryan Pilling ,who was excellent as teacher Mr Briggs. During the show we were treated to the change in  him  from  the bossy teacher to  gentle persuader as  he talks Carol to safety.

Everyone in this show made an impact.  Both   singing  and  acting  are all to be commended. Soloists who really stood  out  were  Jessica Barlow as Susan, Holly Trundle playing  Linda,  and the two bored girls, Eleesha  Mayoh- Etchells and Molly Puckering who sang a cracking number `I`m Bored`.

This show by Willy Russell examines the life of young people and depravation of inner city Liverpool. The young actors certainly brought all that was evident with the lack of almost everything. Well done.

Thank you for a  great  evenings  entertainment.
