David has been busy storming the stage as Dandini the international rock-god in Cinderella, quite a change from his role as Harold the Herald in last year's Sleeping Beauty. We caught up with David to talk all things panto.Stafford Gatehouse Theatre: It's great to have you back this year David, what made you go for a rock 'n' roll panto again?
David Hewson: I love panto anyway but in rock 'n' roll ones you get to play some fantastic music as a live band - what's not to like?
SGT: What instruments are you playing in the show?
DH: Mainly keyboard and guitar.
SGT: What are you enjoying most in this year's show?DH: I get to sing "Shake A Tailfeather" which is such a great song. It opens act II so hopefully it will get everyone into high spirits!
SGT: What are your pre-show rituals?
DH: Brush my teeth!
SGT: Why do you think audiences love panto so much?
DH: I think because it caters to all ages - silly jokes for the little 'uns, slightly ruder ones for the older ones, songs, dancing and lots of audience participation!
SGT: And finally, if your fairy Godmother could grant you one wish what would it be?
DH: A ticket to travel around the world.
