Being 4ft 11ins has its disadvantages, like not seeing over other people's heads in the theatre, not being able to reach high shelves in the kitchen, and having everybody else look down on you all the time. But I guess it has advantages too and playing Tinkerbell in the local pantomime might be one of them. No lines to learn but lots of stage time and lots of dancing. Considering I am playing a drunken disgruntled elf in the Christmas Murder Mystery I am thinking that maybe, just maybe, I am being typecast. The part of Tinks is a fine one and I am pleased with it but I am determined to do it justice and have resolved to lose at least 6kg. There is nothing much I can do about being an ageing Tinks, but I am determined not to be a chubby one. If nothing else I have to consider the 'flying' scenes....not sure what John has in mind yet but for sure it will include a bit of flying!
The first read through is tonight, but since Tinks doesn't speak perhaps I will take along a bell and ring it when appropriate! More later, Ciao!
