Alway House production of "Dazzle" (June 2005)

Dazzle was set on the spaceship Sunburster One with Captain Sam Galactic and his international crew of intrepid explorers.

The audience were transported to a fantastical world populated by creatures ranging from an all female communist species known as Bloshies to Hells Angels look-alikes called Greasers and Greaerettes and a rather grim bunch of space pirates called Slimeys.

The set and costumes were imaginative and eye-catching with plenty of sparkle and colour to bring the inter-galactic worlds to life and the young cast tackled their roles with enthusiasm and energy impressively meeting the demands of acting, singing and dancing throughout.

In the central roles Daniel Smith as Captain Sam Galactic and Jessica Tait as Dazzle Star showed confidence and a flair of comic timing and an eclectic mix of secondary characters, including the spaceship's fairly incompetent medical and engineering staff, provided an amusing backdrop to their burgeoning romance.
