MILLENNIUM SHOW
Our Millennium Show, The Good, Mad Old Days was staged at Bohunt on
Friday 28th and Saturday 29th July 2000.
It was a trip through the last 100 years with songs and sketches - some funny,
some sad, with a bit of something from every decade.
As our story begins Queen Victoria is still on the throne ...
The 1900's
A Medley of Music Hall Songs for the early 1900's.
A comic Double Talk sketch with Mick and Carol Selley
More songs featuring David Jenner and Jo Banbury followed by a good old
sing-along featuring chiefly YOURSELVES!!
The 1910's
The Titanic sketch featuring David and Jo as a loving couple sailing off to an
idyllic future together .....
The First World War, the Locket Sketch with Mick (Joe) and Jenny Courtnage
(Betsie) as an officer and a servant girl in love as he is about to return to
the trenches .... First World War songs featuring Norma White.
With the war almost over Betsie's sister (Sharon Anderson) visit's Joe's mother
(Mary West) with the hope that they'll get married - a hope that Joe's mother
doesn't share but a hope that is dashed as a telegram arrives announcing Joe's
death ....

Slappers !
The Mother Sketch with Mick and Ruth Savage
The Careful Wife Sketch

The 1970's and 1980's
These were the years of the big musicals so we present a medley of hits from the
shows...

followed by Bethany Breach in her first non dancing role.
The 1990's
The Technical Age ! The Watch Sketch (Suitcases ? Oh no, those are the
batteries), with Mick and Maggie Tarpey.

the show.
