Whoops a Daisy Angel is a nativity play with a difference, narrated by Sophia and Harry Basset. The play opened with the late arrival of the comical Whoops a Daisy Angel played by Anna Sowerby, looking very messy and dirty, whilst all the other angels looked so perfect with their white glittery costumes.  The dancing snowflakes set the wintery Christmas scene with some fantastic dancing and the sheep and the donkey did an excellent job of moving around the stage.  When Whoops a Daisy gets to Bethlehem she is greeted by the enthusiastic three wise men George Morrison, Sam Stonebridge and Joseph Reed.  Mary, played by Florrie Tyler and Joseph played by George Hipwell are also waiting for Whoops a Daisy, who manages to deliver the good news of the birth of the baby Jesus despite all her difficulties.

The children sang some beautiful songs both traditional and modern accompanied by Mrs Skipper on the piano.  The cast spoke and sang clearly and confidently; it was a great performance! I look forward to next year's show as it will be difficult to beat.
