All the ingredients are in place for another great show from Girlguiding Stone Outward Division as they return with a Handful of Songs 2022!
A spoonful of talent, a cupful of songs and a good sprinkling of sparkle is the recipe needed, and the guides hope to wow audiences with their singing, dancing and comedy talents.
This year’s show brings the delights of the west end musicals mixed with a touch of Disney and sounds straight from the charts. Over 35 songs, hundreds of costumes and some razzle dazzle added to the talents of a group of young and passionate girls promises to create a show that you wouldn’t want to miss.
The last two years with the onset of the pandemic have had a huge impact on the show, with A Handful of Songs 2020 being cancelled only weeks before the cast were due to take the stage.
Although a smaller cast than before again, due to all the challenges that Girlguiding has faced through the pandemic, the cast of Brownies, Guides and section members are gearing up to impress in what promises to be a fabulous show.
So what’s makes A Handful of Songs so special? Born back in 1975 by Maureen Recine, the current County Commissioner, a show was put on for the residents of Barlaston for Christmas, met with huge joy a seed was sown for the start of something very special.
43 years later A handful of Songs has gone from strength to strength, finding its feet on a professional theatre stage and being the only national biennial girl guiding show. The show has even been on the west end stage in London!
With no auditions the shows pride itself on being open to all girl guiding members and promises to give them a unique experience, being part of a professional show and the opportunity to learn new skills in singing, dancing and acting alongside meeting new friends and having a whole load of fun mixed in to!
The show takes to the stage at the Repertory Theatre in Stoke-on-Trent on Wednesday 13th and Thursday 14th April at 7pm and then again on Saturday 16th April, with a matinee performance at 2pm and an evening performance at 7pm.
