Interview: Laureen

Name: Laureen Spiteri
Panto Role: Chorus
Non-Panto Role: Professional giggler

How did you come to be in Panto?
It's my best friend's fault! She forced persuaded me to go to auditions!

What is your favourite genre in theatre!
Comedy, because it makes you laugh.

What has been your most embarrassing theatrical moment so far?
When Dorielle knocked off my wig during one of the dances...

What has been your best theatrical experience?
Panto rehearsals, because we had some good laughs.

And what has been your worst theatrical experience
Any time when the audience doesn't laugh and clap (and doesn't get the jokes!)

And finally, what has been your most special theatrical experience?
Making friends!

If you could play any role at all, in any production, what would it be?
Any role in Chicago - because it's sassy!

If you could give one piece of advice to a person thinking about getting involved in the world of theatre, what would it be?
It's a fabulous experience, but very time-consuming. Try it though if you want to!

Say something nice about someone else in the cast.
I cannot say anything nice about someone, but I can say a million nice things about the cast because they're all great, and we became like one big family!

And finally... what's a phrase that will now forever remind you of this year's Panto?
Dulur!
