Andrew Bissmire (Short)
This is Andrew’s third Woldingham panto, and he’s thoroughly enjoying stretching
his comedic skills again this year as part of the comedy trio, especially since he’s
playing ‘Short’. – something he hasn’t been called in quite a while! He’s currently
training as an apprentice tree surgeon in Guildford but unfortunately not being in
Sherwood Forest this year he can’ t put his new-
Louise Wilkinson (Prince Charming)
On being Principal Boy for the last two years, Louise decided to go for a change and asked to audition for Principal Girl. However this plan was not to be, as James turned around and said no, “you're too tall, and too manly” (get some specs James!), so once again Louise is returning to panto as Principal Boy. She is currently in her last year of school, and is a contestant for Miss England this year.
Matthew Martin (Back)
After spending one year out at Uni, Matt couldn't resist the callings of the Woldingham Pantomime, and returned to the role of the Wicked Witch last year. This year, however, he thought it would be a good change to dress as his own gender once again! While still at Exeter Uni where he is studying Drama, he’s made sure he still has the time to return to his roots as ‘Back’, one of this year’s comedy trio.
Krysia Szafranski (Sides)
This is Krysza’s last Woldingham panto after 10 years. Currently in her last year at school, she is studying for her A' Levels after receiving 5As at AS last year. She then hopes to do a year at dance college before heading off to Uni to study Philosophy. Although hanging up her dance shoes this year to become 'Sides' the decorator, she still dances every day as a mentor at the Lucy Griffiths Dance Academy, as well as being a member of the English Youth Ballet. At the end of the month she will be appearing in LOS's ‘Sweeney Todd’, followed by ELOC's ‘Carmen’ later in the year. She has really enjoyed being part of the comedy trio and hopes you enjoy the show.
