Daisy Pulls It Off
This week saw the Humphreys Theatre transformed into Grangewood School for Girls as pupils from the First to Third Years took to the stage for a topping performance of Denise Deegan’s spoof of school girl adventures: Daisy Pulls it Off. With cries of ‘jubilate’ and ‘how topping!’, plucky Elementary schoolgirl, Daisy Meredith, played brilliantly by Eloise and best pal Trixie (played with energy and enthusiasm by Zoe) find themselves battling to save Daisy’s reputation from unspeakable snobs Sybil (Asha) and Monica (Penny) as well as trying to discover the Beaumont treasure that will save the school and Clare’s (played delightfully by Anna) family from ruin! With hilarious set pieces, including a cliff rescue, a choreographed hockey match and high jinks in the classroom, this play showcased some fabulous comic talent and impressive ensemble work. Well done to all the pupils involve! As well as this spiffingly entertaining play, the Lower School also delighted the audience with a puppet show and a devised piece, written by members of the Third Year and lead by Flora.
