Tony Dent (Baron Boracic-
Pantomime is always special, uniquely British – thank goodness! Whether playing Dame, Baron or Villager it never fails to work its magic and Woldingham has a special place in my long experience. It continues in the ‘family’ tradition, and long may it be a source of seasonal joy and pride for the village.
Maura Henley (The Queen)
Having come in from the wastes of Russia in ‘The Cherry Sisters’, modelled for a dubious furrier in ‘Not Now Darling’ and the respectable housekeeper in ‘The Letterbox Rattles’, Maura is swapping her green tights as one of the Merry Men in last year’s ‘Robin Hood’ for a crown in this year’s production. This is Maura’s sixth year in Panto in which she has played many diverse roles from chorus singer, the Baroness, to the Chamberlain in ‘Sleeping Beauty’. She hopes you enjoy the show.
Sarah Greenwood (Baroness Boracic-
Sarah was very excited when James rang and told her that she COULD go to the ball, accompanied by not one but TWO gorgeous young men...but then it turned out he meant himself and Chris (young? gorgeous?) and she would be playing their MOTHER! Oh well, that’s panto! Sarah really, really was going to have a year off this year, but as the Summer leaves began to fall, and the first frost came she could not ignore the plaintive call of the stage (and it’s director!) and enthusiastically donned the garb of the Wicked Stepmother. She’d like you all to know it IS just makeup!
