2008 Programme - Harby Harlequins

RICHARD IIEDLEY : Constable Hoskins
Richard again masterfully directs the music and songs, and disowns
responsibility for the quality of the actors' voices. He drives the proceedings
as narrator, songster, and social commentator, explaining
the confusing bits - so you'll see him frequently. But quite what i
1960s PC is doing in 17th Century France - only Eddie knows!
SALLYFAGAN : Captain Del Monte
The Captain of the King's Musketeers is a master at organising and
ordering the troops into battle, and that's Sally just preparing for the
show! As Del Monte, Sally says "l'ES" and we hopathe audience
does too. Sally pleaded to play a woman this year, and as punishment
for this insolence again plays a strong male - but will she 6e in tights?
M@
TIIE FIVE (OTHER) MUSKETEERS Qeft to right)
MARTIN OLLEY: Big Louis
Newcomer Martin is the real professional in our midst. As well as playing Mr Bumbleat
the Theatre Royal, he's a TV 'extra', having 'staned'in such preitigious shows
as Crossroads, Doctor in the House and Blue Murder. Look out for himioon in The
Royal Today! Perhaps he could give us lessons!
ANN LILLEY : Littte Louis
As Big Louis' little big brother, little Ann has been showing big Martin the little
ropes and the big entrances, whilst she struggles to keep up with hii big strides in the
little march that our big band play. Maybe she just needs to *"ur so--e high heels!
EMILYJENKINS : Louis Drambuie
Last year as our reporter, Emily battled against an offrcious Frenchman, and now, as
one of our brave musketeers, she has become one herself. certainly her tough musketeer
training will stand her in good stead in her day job as a teaiher!
ANDY BUCK : Humphrey
It's nice to see our occasional Harlequin Andy back on stage - that's in the occasional
pantomime and coming to the occasional rehearsal! still, he plays the camp
Humphrey to perfection. I wonder ifhe really wields a steam iron as weli as he says!
NICK GOFF : Dougal
Nick begged Eddie to be given thepartof the hippie musketeer Dougal. well, to be
fair, as a teenager he was probably halfiray there inyway, so it does save energy on
the need to act, but sometimes he's so laid back he almost seems horizontal!
