And the curtain has come down on Goodnight Mister Tom - and what a week that was!

Huge thanks to our wonderful audiences who flocked to support us. Every performance sold out and we were sorry to have to tell some patrons that there were no tickets left - but what a problem to have! 

We've had some great feedback and there were standing ovations - a fantastic experience, especially for our young actors at the start of their theatrical journey.

Some comments were:

Thank you all so much!  The play was wonderful and I enjoyed it so much, though close to tears at the end, even though.

Well, what a triumph. The play was amazing. I thought it would be hard on a small stage but you cracked it- again!. Well done everyone esp. the puppeteer. We had both read book but loved the play. Congratulations all.

If you missed out on a ticket we can add you to our mailing list for an early reminder next time. You can contact Sue at susiedrama@gmail.com or ring her on  01708 782118.
