We love celebrating our brilliant Educators successes both in and out of the Bigfoot world! We are therefore thrilled to tell you about not one, but TWO shows that our Bigfooters are part of. We look forward to supporting them!
Samantha Pears
Wonderful Bigfooter extraordinaire Sam Pears, whilst not only starring in our Christmas extravaganza Agent Frostbite and the search for Tinsel Tally, has also choreographed and directed a pantomime! Beauty and the Beast is presented by Twinckenham Youth Theatre at the Exchange Theatre between 17th and 21st December.
Get ready for a tale as old as time…told in a way you’ve NEVER seen before! From the pen of locally acclaimed playwright Loz Keal comes this original old fashioned, modern pantomime! This Christmas, a “Beauty” of a panto twirls back onto the stage at The Exchange, Beauty and the Beast gets a delightfully daft panto makeover! Perfect for children, grown-ups, and anyone who’s ever identified as a bit of a Beast before their morning cup of tea.

Harriet Forgan
One of our brilliant elves in this year’s The Clumsiest Christmas Elf, Harriet Forgan, is appearing in the upcoming reading of The Fig Tree on the 9th of Jan at Omnibus Theatre in Clapham.
Niamh’s life in London isn’t exactly how she dreamed it would be. Her job sucks, her flat is horrible, and her best friends all seem to be leaving her behind. So, when Niamh accidentally discovers she can time travel into her memories, it seems like the perfect chance to fix her past regrets and live the life she’s always wanted. But fixing the past isn’t easy, and Niamh soon learns there are some things you cannot change. In order to fix her future, Niamh must address the darkness in her past, and learn to embrace her present.
Fig Tree is a dark, funny, and hopeful exploration of grief, regret and second chances, and the first full length theatrical work from Digital Broadcast Award-winning writer Nic O’Keeffe (Sparklers, BBCiPlayer; Wyrm, Live Theatre Newcastle). This reading presents the first act of the play in development. Come! Read more HERE
