Footrot Flats a Winner

The Kensington Theatre Foyer sets the scene…

Last night saw the opening of the Putaruru Theatre Players 2018 production, Footrot Flats.

The plot involves rus versus urbe – stay in the country or go to the city. We won’t do a spoiler though and raddle cages.

Cheeky and Wal – is city life a possibility? Will it be shears or blow waves?

All the popular Footrot characters play a part in this musical adaption by Roger Hall, Philip Norman and AK Grant of the Murray Ball created slice of heaven. The Putaruru Theatre Players presentation is directed by Tina Ward – a top cat in the musical world.

Dog and Jess – is there a back-up plan?
Horse rules, but is there a honey trap?
Aunt Dolly has the situation pegged.
Prince Charles – chains of gold…

Naturally, country life comes in for some humorous attention during Footrot Flats.

Cecil in action – but gumboots would help his infirmary at Tupperware parties.
Hand delivered…
Who said I was anti-litter?
Final Curtain – hands raised for Footrot Flats.
Round up your friends now…
