Many of you will know that Gillian has been trying to gain permission to perform The Lady In The Van by Alan Bennett for festivals.
This year in desperation, on learning it was still not available for amateurs she decided to make a direct appeal to the author himself and..... she received a reply from Alan Bennett's agent and Samuel French to say that special permission had been granted for Barts to perform the play in local festivals. Happy Days!
Casting readings will therefore be held after the panto so work can begin on the script straight after Xmas. This is good news indeed for Barts - Hurrah!!
