Our debut at the Lantern Arts Centre was also our first session on a Sunday evening. Despite the timing, not too many of us got stage fright and six Goodgymers turned up on cue. The event was the 'Get in' where the company starts to transform the church into a theatre space for their upcoming production of Be My Baby, a play about unmarried mothers set in the 1960s.

Tasks included moving flats and props and hanging cloths and everything else needed before the following day's set build. Along with other volunteers, including members of the cast, we whizzed through the jobs so fast, we were able to do some improvisation and give the rehearsal room a thorough GoodGym clean as well. Hopefully we will be back for an encore!
