Theatre Alibi

15 October 2018

The children across the whole school were treated to a wonderful visit from Theatre Alibi. The children and staff were delighted by the vivid storytelling, live music and a good old fashioned boogie to bring the brilliant story of Table Mates to life.

Three cooks, three very different lives. Each course tells a story. Six O’clock comes and three weary workers return to their cosy abode. With the barest of hellos, they take off their coats and put on their chefs whites. They are Starter, Main and Pudding and each night, without fail, they cook each other a delicious meal. Starter makes starter, Main makes main and Pudding makes pudding.

They soon set to work in the kitchen, dancing round each other like Morecambe and Wise making breakfast. Starter fashions an exquisite nibble of microscopic, but mouth-watering delight. Main conjures a dish that carries her heart home on a whiff of basil and lime. Pudding steams a duff the size of a football, so no-one need fear going hungry. Three cooks, three very different lives. Each course tells a story.

Thank you Theatre Alibi, each year your productions are thrilling and enriching.
