I had a chat with Rebecca Fenwick, you know, the star of Spoonface Steinberg, yes the one that was staged here in Audlem a couple of years back, well yes, she agreed to fetch Lee Hall's (Writer of Billy Elliot) amazing story back to Audlem. YES '...

Performed by Rebecca Fenwick, a Lee Hall (writer of Billy Elliot) play that made his name having fantastic reviews following it's airing on BBC Radio 4.

Ever since Rebecca Fenwick starred in Freereange Theatre's production of this Lee Hall play here in Audlem in 2013, following the fantastic feedback, Hoc19 have wanted to fetch this Lee Hall play back home.

For those that had the privilege to watch it last time, it is a truly moving play that pulls all the strings, you will be close to tears, but you will laugh at the insights of Spoonface. Truly moving. Truly special.

NOW WE CAN, and it has been pulled together following a conversation with Rebecca, she has decided to produce Spoonface Steinberg herself and fetch it to Audlem first!

Rebecca has been fortunate in the array of roles she's had the opportunity to play.
Her favourites include

• Juliet in Romeo and Juliet (Theatre),
• Sibyl in The Picture of Dorian Gray (Theatre),
• Mary in The Wake (Theatre),
• Annabel Forest in Nightmare in Suburbia (TV),
• Caroline Roberts in Fred and Rose West: The untold story(TV)
• and most recently returning to her panto roots as Fairy Dairy in Jack and the Beanstalk (Theatre)

After a two year national tour, a Manchester Theatre Award nomination and nomination for Best Actress at the Buxton Festival Fringe, she is excited to be performing Spoonface Steinberg again at Audlem, with her old friend Bertie the Bear and under the new direction of the wonderful Alan Rothwell.

Working with Director Alan Rothwell, Spoonface's story will be fetched back to the boards, and as Alan comments, this is his sixty-seventh year as an actor and theatre director, he is somewhat in awe of Lee Hall's Spoonface Steinberg and commends Rebecca's performance to you as something unique, brave and moving.

Alan has appeared in several of the usual television soaps and series but is perhaps best remembered by "older viewers, anyway "as Ken Barlow's kid brother, David. Younger people may know him as the presenter of Granada TV's Picture Box, the educational programme with which he was associated as presenter, writer and finally as producer, for eighteen years.

He was recently to be seen in episodes of Casualty Doctors, The Musketeers, and the BBC's one-off, true life drama/doc, A Song For Jenny.

On the big screen he appeared at the end of the pier in Alan Partridge, Alpha Papa. Awaiting airing are another episode of Doctors and an appearance in a new Craig Cash comedy, Rovers.
