Brownies in bid for the stage
 


EVERYONE must know by now what to expect from the outrageous Attic Theatre panto.  Each December, droves of sweet, innocent children are delivered to Aberdeen Arts Centre for a monster helping.

For the following fortnight anxious parents fret about the glazed look in their offsprings' eyes.  Eventually, when their voices return to normal, the kids tell them how they were forced to scream and shout until their hair stood on end.

It is also a fact of life that the Attic panto audience gets louder every year.

Last night, during the opening performance of Cinderella, a squad of Mannofield Brownies attempted several times to storm the stage - which means that the event is a spectacular hit.

Fiona Lussier is a charming Cinderella and Craig Scott is excellent as Buttons.  Pauline Chambers is stunning as the wicked Stepmother.
