It was fabulous, total audience interaction from the very beginning.
During the show the Fairy Godmother managed to introduce a tombola full of tickets. Those of us who had bought programmes should look to the bottom right of the front cover and take note of the number. Ours was number 154.
Fairy Godmother announced that a local travel company had provided a prize of a cruise for 4 people for one week around the Mediterranean. Theatre staff were present with torches to check the programme cover numbers.
The winning number was 154. Yaaaayy... that was us. I jumped up, waving our programme, I've got it, I've got it. That's our number.
Alas..... half the audience were also waving their programmes.
The joke was on us ....
