A
charming traditional fairy story, with catchy participation numbers,
lovely costumes, beautiful voices and most of all a lesson to be
learnt from the characters.
A
totally enjoyable hour watching the story of 'Rumplestiltskin' with
one or two twists and extra characters. This version of the musical
appeared in Edinburgh in 2000 with an adult cast, this version by
‘The Unknown Theatre Company’ brings their much younger cast for
their fifth appearance at the Fringe. The atmosphere is electric and
the cast enthusiastic. They obviously love to perform and this spills
out to the audience who enjoy the show.
The
cast are Amy Rooney, Steven Donoghue, Kerry Donovan, Emma Batchelor,
Lauren Roberts, Andrew Machin, Kim Littlechild, Matthew Holmquist,
Dafydd Gape and Matthew Atkins. The supporting Company are Victor
Atkins, Jane Donoghue, Ben Davies, Lucy Chiplin, Annette Littlechild
and Steven Elson.
