Favourite Music
Anything that has a good tune and sticks in your head, but not rap!

Things I Hate
The ‘C’ word, smoking, litter dropping, being nagged, feet, disrespect, mornings, being cold (being at the ice rink is an exception however), too long without cake and a CUPPA TEA, Dan in a strop, sanding down walls and ceilings, shouting and aggression, people who won't admit when they're in the wrong, cruelty to animals, clearing up other people’s mess from our steps (!), electricity bills, noisy, over-confident people who push the not so confident, quiet people aside to get what
they want! And more than anything, writing the diary and logging CCTV footage.

Best Moment When Building the Theatre
When all the areas became tidy and clutter free! I loved it when we ran the lighting for the first time, but also when the stage and proscenium arch were built. Things really began to take shape then! Oh, and the test performances we ran in April 2015. It was the first time we ran a show as such, and the atmosphere was amazing.

Worst Moment When Building the Theatre
Probably when we were getting the planning and licensing sorted out. That was a bit of a headache! Dealing with ongoing issues, including neighbours and spiders!

My Heroes
My family (Taylors and Robertsons), Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean (they inspired me to learn to ice skate), my friends (in Essex and here), the people who have given me a chance, Julie Andrews, Dan for making me laugh and for putting up with me!
