 REVIEWS

NODA Review - by Bill Stubbs

David Bridges used all his talent and experience as Scrooge, giving a polished portrayal of this complex character. Joe Totten played Jacob Marley, with strong singing, and was also outstanding as Tom Jenkins. We enjoyed the fine singing and performance of Rachel Totten as The Ghost of Christmas Past, and Bryan Shallow (Ebenezer) again proved what a a talent he is. The larger than life Ghost of Christmas Present was suitably portrayed by the effervescent Iain Campbell. Bob Cratchitt was played by the more than competent Matthew Coulter. James Brown (Nephew Harry) was outstanding and with wife Helen (Lorraine Murphy) and the marvellous chorus provided a highlight with a wonderful performance of "The Minister's Cat". The Cratchitt family with long suffering Mrs Cratchitt (Ailsa King) all played in character, especially Brendan Strang (Tiny Tim). The other named principals played their roles to the high standard attained in this wonderful production. I can only say I endorse every word printed in the local press review.
