Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, or as they say in Angola - Feliz Ano Novo, lamento que tenha sido um longo tempo.

It's a good few months since my last blog and, after having a good break from fundraising and blogging, I am back (at least for now anyway). I had intended to have a bit longer break, maybe set myself a project for 2015, but oh no, constantly in my mind, particularly over the Christmas period, was an idea - like an itch that just couldn't be scratched - a pantomime!

And so it began. The long hours sifting through websites looking for ideas, which panto to perform? How much is it going to cost? Will it make much money for the Brain Research Trust? Who is to be in it? Can I actually pull it off from scratch? All good questions, which by the end of 2014, I would hope to answer, all with a resounding YES!

Having read through scripts for Jack & The Beanstalk, Snow White and Cinderella, I opted to go for the latter. A few reasons why - firstly it was the one I was able to envisage when I closed my eyes. Secondly, having thought about the set construction and the limited space available it seemed quite 'doable' (not sure how I will get a horse and carriage on, but that's part of the fun I suppose). Lastly, the cast list seemed to be the most appropriate for my team of budding thespians - I couldn't get my hands on 7 willing dwarves!

So, if nothing else, I have established the following;
  • Cinderella is to be the pantomime
  • Multiple shows (ticket sales permitting) to try and raise as much as possible
  • It's going to take a lot of effort
Now all I need to do is get the casting sorted, and plan the staging - what could be easier?

I will keep you posted......
