Most unfortunate Cllr Britcliffe had to leave at half time! Either the sight of me in my under garments or the lure of electioneering got to him.

Electioneering Gayle, electioneering

That was without the hair. For anyone who has read this thread and is still under any illusion that I may look like a normal person in this play - please think again. The picture in the paper did not do justice to the full effect - I didn't have the wig on!!!!!!
The wig, or should I say Beryl, as it clearly has a life of its own and should really be credited as such in the programme, is a cross between Lily Savage's barnet and the Dulux dog - I'm sure we all remember him.
The boots, again something not shown in the paper, add about 9" to my height (honestly!!!!!) - which in real terms means that one of the male cast who is the same height as me is now on direct eye level with something other than my eyes!

Oooh yes, do please, Gayle.
Sadly, I can't get to see this show. I'm gutted as, like all Ossy Players productions, it sounds great.
You looked fab in the paper last week so please do put up a pic of you in full costume.

You might find that I can run surprisingly fast, even with the boots on.

'Eeew' - that's not good! Aren't they supposed to be saying 'cor'.

Re: Habeas Corpus .. starts tonight !!
The question about the boots is not 'where did she get them' but 'how on earth does she walk in them?'
