Val was bitten by the
acting bug at the tender age of five when she was cast as a
Christmas Tree in the Sunday School play.
Her father spent weeks
making her outfit which had a cardboard stem down the front. After
doing her bit she was told to sit down on a little chair by her
Sunday School teacher. She did not want to as she was afraid the stem
would break. She stood there dumb struck until the teacher gently
forced her to sit, breaking the stem and Val broke into floods of tears.
However she fully
recovered from this very traumatic event and the following year she
was cast as Dick Whittington's cat........the rest as they say ....is history! |
