The best part of this is that she had no lines to learn
In April 2007 Glynis was the Policewoman in 'Blood Money' where she was heard at the door but never came onstage. Glynis was also Stage manager for this production.
In November 2007 Glynis was also heard but not seen as she did not audition for a part in Country Wife. We were hoping to sell our house and move away from Northants, but were still here when she agreed to be the Prompter, and was kept busy as the cast found the script of this restoration comedy to be quite a challenge.
Finally, in March 2008, Glynis had the part of a 'batty' medium in her last production with Duston Players, a comedy entitled "Late of This address". After which we moved to Devon - Who says type-casting does not happen!
Glynis has been Producer for a number of Duston Players productions, including Are You Being Served , Little Women and Baggy.
Since moving to Devon, Glynis
has appeared on Stage in the "SADS" production of "1984" in October 2008,
the "TOADS" production
of Katherine Howard in December 2008 and she was in the SADS

(Jack and the Beanstalk). Her last appearance with Shiphay was as Katherine in Jekyll & Hyde from
18th to 20th March 2010, and her most recent appearance in August 2010
was with TOADS as a Guest at Fawlty Towers. She has also
worked backstage on a number of TOADS productions including
"The Graduate", "Dial M for Murder" &
