The Willowbank Centre, which will be remembered for The Sound of Morven Crescent
and award-winning The Hoose, is back with its latest production Blue Toon
Brithers — Sooth Bay Sisters.
Peterheid finally has its brand new prison. From another prison in deepest Scotland,
Blue Toon Brither, B'wood finds out his old stomping ground, the Morven Crescent
School of Music and Dance, is closing down because someone keeps stealing the takings
from the safe. Determined to save the school, B'wood escapes and returns to Peterheid
but his hopes of holding a fund-raising concert are dashed when he discovers the
other Blue Toon Brithers have moved away and the owner's new pupils are all musically
challenged! To make matters worse, their only hope, the famous dance duo the Sooth
Bay Sisters, have been kidnapped by evil Miss Alexandra Parade and are being held
prisoner in Sooth Bay Mansions (aka old Peterheid Prison) where she is running a
"Ladette To Lady School". If that wasn't bad enough, the "special person" brought
in to catch the thief is more interested in love than money and the rent is due!
Enjoy the fun and frolicks that are about to unfold!
The show, which is written, produced and directed by local playwright Morag Skene,
is an entertaining mix of song, dance drama and comedy.
Performed by the Willowbank Show Group, it is suitable for adults and children.
Tickets are available from the community centre. You can also get tickets by writing
to Willowbank Centre, Glendaveny, PETERHEAD AB42 3DY (including stamped addressed
envelope), with the number of tickets required, which evening and a cheque made
out to the Willowbank Amenities Fund.

Morag Skene has done most artistic things once! She's had a story broadcast
on BBC Radio Scotland, sung with a jazz band, written and directed one play, one
panto and even played a dame — once. She's written a poem, survived a whole
tap routine and a 13-minute monologue — but not at the same time!
