Musical Director/ Vocal Coach Robert Young would be extremely proud of his cohort, as both individually and collectively they produced a “Beautiful” tone and took us on a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows. Lynda Cook’s costumes created a “Candy Store” of different characters, encompassing the full spectrum of High School characters, whilst retaining the quintessential essence of the show through the identifiable Heathers’ outfits. Choreographer Maisy Jo ensured that the dancers were well drilled and able to own the stage in the whole cast numbers.
Veronica Sawyer is the main character of this story, and Lily Cotton played her to perfection. Her strong voice carried confidently throughout the theatre and her facial expressions were exceptional in defining the gamut of emotions experienced by her character.

With several roles double cast across the performances the experience may vary, however I am quite confident that the overall experience will “Freeze your brain” as you take it all in and walk away feeling both satisfied and wanting more, all at the same time.
Technical issues aside, the individual cast members combined to create an enjoyable and entertaining show. So do yourself a favour and support this local community theatre group by grabbing a few friends and catching a show before their season concludes.
