Feisty cast in Fame game
 


ARTISTIC temperaments were in full flight last night as the Aberdeen Arts Centre played host to the Attic Theatre Company's feisty cast in the hit musical Fame.

While the fragile egos of the pupils and teachers of the legendary Schoool of Performing Arts exploded into life, we began to understand why Fame has been such an enduring success over the years.

It was blatantly clear last night that Fame is the standard to which all singers and dancers aspire

Under the strong direction of David Johnston, Attic Theatre more than holds its own in this winning version.

The multi-talented young cast belt out numbers like Dancin' On The Sidewalk and Bring On Tomorrow with unbounded enthusiasm.

With confident performances and fine singing from Michelle Bruce and Gordon Brandie as Serena and Nick, and tight musical direction from Jean McLeod, this production instantly won the admiration of the capacity audience.

Fame is highly recommended and runs at the Arts Centre until Satuday.
