WEDGE presents
BUGSY MALONE
19th to 22nd November

Directed by Ann Roberts

Musical numbers directed by
Chez Payne-Annetts and Lauren Priestnall

Producer Joy Haynes

A musical spoof about gang warfare in 1930s America – Fat Sam meets Dandy Dan and Blousey Brown falls for Bugsy Malone – lots of fun!

This is one of the most exciting WTW productions in recent years, the first full scale Musical that we have put on for almost 20 years and the first ever with a live orchestra including keyboard, drums, bass guitar, clarinets, flute, trombone and tuba. 

It is a fast moving, unsentimental and very funny play that has been specially adapted from Alan Parker’s popular film.  Featuring an extensive cast of young male and female characters with great costumes and memorable songs this show is enormously entertaining and will appeal to everyone irrespective of age.

A fantastic, highly talented and enthusiastic team is working hard on what promises to be a milestone production showcasing the considerable talents of our younger members. You will definitely enjoy this show which is an important and high profile production by WTW that demands the full support of every member. We have a very hard working young cast under the direction of Ann Roberts and Chez Payne Annetts with valuable support from Lauren Priestnall and Andy McKay.  The Musical Direction is being led by Angela Pengilley, who will be playing the keyboard and rehearsing the young musicians.
