Act One Beginners brings Our House to the Chequer Mead
Spokeswoman Beverly Hewitt said: “Packed full of iconic songs by Madness, Our House is a fast-paced, hilarious and touching story, with the principal roles being played by students who have won places to begin full-time training in September at a number of the UK’s leading performing arts colleges. Expect high-energy, vibrant and exciting performances throughout. It would be Madness to miss it!”
Beverly added: “We are a local drama school (we hold classes in Copthorne and Felbridge) and we have been in rehearsal for just six weeks.
