    To my shame that's the first time I've been but I'll be a regular face in future.

    The play was Sparkies, about a young lad taking up an electrician's apprenticeship at a pit in '66.

    Thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a great little theatre, a bit quaint really, and deserves the support of the town.

    He was excellent.

    Also enjoyed Dennis, the Miners'Rest landlord, who plays Stan Still.

    I saw the Hull Truck Theatre Company do Bouncers at Wakey. Brilliant.

    I noticed the last time it was at the lamproom but forgot to go. Won't miss it next time.

    SPARKIES........best play in the world !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Saw it last time at the lamproom
    I posted about it then on here and raved about it
    I'll be theer again this Wed night
    If tha's got any mining experience especially if tha were a fitter or electrician
    GO AND SEE THIS PLAY
    I've been in theatres in London and the plays I have seen have been great
    But Sparkies is about the pits in the Wakey and Barnsley areas, its summert different its closer to home and its much easier to relate to it
