“ The leading man Chris Holmes is a man of many talents and one of them is a tap dancing teacher.”
“Chris has offered to put the cast of 50 through their tap dancing routines to ensure the show is alive with vibrant tap routines.”
“The cast have bought their tap shoes and are busy going through their training at a dance studio so they are ready to wow the public in June at Hull New Theatre.”
