Bravo Nigel, what an interesting video. You're a natural in front of the camera too and it's lovely to see backstage! Can you tell me if the signed banner from the cast of The Sound of Music is still on display backstage? And/or if the framed photo of Maria with the Von Trapp kids is still framed and up on the wall front of house, near to the box office? I ask because my niece performs in a dance school show every year at the Gordon Craig, it's the highlight of her life, and I ask her to look out for the photo of her aunty Natalie but she hasn't been able to find it yet! Many thanks! Natalie
