Mother Ginger Neal’s Version

Posted on November 30, 2015 by nealw

When I was a kid and right up until a couple of years ago it was a family tradition to watch a live performance of the Nutcracker. Fast forward and never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be part of the show! I was asked to be ‘Mother Ginger’ in this years performance at the Palace Theater in Manchester and wow was it fun. I was part of a fabulous show, the cast and crew put on one great performance after another over the weekend. I have to say the makeup artists did a great transformation on me!
