Nicole is looking forward to once again working on a Cambrian production, this time on stage.

This is Ruth's fifth appearance with Cambrian, including her most recent role as Phoebe Reece in The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen's Guild Dramatic Society's Production of A Christmas Carol. She is excited to return to the stage with such a talented cast and is continually thankful for the support of her family and friends.

I'd like to dedicate this production to my mother, and anyone who searched for queer role models. Thanks to Cambrian for all their support, to Jim for being my co-conspirator, to our amazing cast and crew. Special thanks to my not-so-little men, especially to Rhys for lending us Lola's chair.
