During
the course of the late July weekend we were entertained by The
Lavender Hill Mob Drama Club which was founded in February 2001
by Lesley Miles with the objective of giving everyone (aged 4 years
and above) access to Performing Arts. The Club is
described as "like a
family" and operates year round in Hunstanton with its main rules
being respect, encouragement and commitment. Lesley Miles
worked and trained at the Chicken Shed Theatre Company in North
London for three years and she maintains the Chicken Shed ethos
in the Club. This means that everyone is welcome no matter
what their abilities and no audition is necessary. All
members are invited to participate in the performances, where
sign language is taught and encouraged. |
The
Club is run by a Committee, comprising Lesley Miles (Artistic
Director & Producer), Tim Rock (Musical Director), Mick & Sharon
Yates (Assistant Directors), Stephanie Bass (Publicity), Jane
Faulkner (Funding & Finance), Emma Steer (Children's Safety
Officer), Lynette Passmore (Wardrobe Mistress) and Claire Penty
and Michael Miles (Head Chaperones).
