Bugsy Malone

The end part of the week saw the school production, two matinees and four evening performances was a big demand on the time of James Martin, Dom Marsh and Oscar Fagerstrom-Day. It was a brilliant production, hugely entertaining and I am really proud of all three. Mr Bluck our new resident tutor wrote the following review.

Shiplake College’s hugely successful annual performance came to an end this Saturday and we are delighted that James Martin, Dom Marsh and Oscar Fagerstrom-Day were all part of the act. The school have been preparing long and hard to perform Bugsy Malone to staff, parents and the local community. James, who played Leroy Smith – ‘the man with the awesome punch,’ fights off muggers, trains as a fighter and ultimately ends up saving Bugsy Malone by locating the splurge guns. Dom was given sole responsibility for lighting the performance and ended up installing over 25 lights! Oscar, who played Looney Bergonzi, was splurged to death and can be seen in the attached link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Z7Cvgt-z6A&feature=youtu.be. It was another outstanding performance by Shiplake College and we are incredibly proud of James, Dom and Oscar for their involvement.
