And Then There Were None

She recently completed a successful season in pantomime. As Lynne is often cast in comic roles, Emily Brent is an interesting and rewarding departure.

Sarah Howell
Director
Sarah has enjoyed acting since her drama O-level. This is her second time directing this group, and is continually delighted and amazed by the talented group of actors, as well as by their abilities in so many other areas – tech, publicity, set, props.
Ten Little Soldier Boys…
Ten Little Soldier Boys went out to Dine, one choked his little self and then there were nine.
Nine Little Soldier Boys stayed up very late; One overslept himself and then there were eight.
Eight Little Soldier Boys travelling in Devon; One said he’d stay there and then there were seven.
Seven Little Soldier Boys chopping up sticks; One chopped himself in halves and then there were six.
Six Little Soldier Boys playing with a hive; A bumblebee stung one and then there were five.
Five Little Soldier Boys going through a door; One stubbed his toe and then there were four.
Four Little Soldier Boys going out to sea; A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.
Three Little Soldier Boys walking in the zoo; A big bear hugged one and then there were two.
Two Little Soldier Boys sitting in the sun; One got frizzled up and then there was One.
One Little Soldier Boy left all alone; He went and hanged himself and then there were none.
