Talented Toad Hall Trio

EDWARD Eustace is noticing a few points of similarity between himself and Mr Badger, the character he plays in Chichester Festival Youth Theatre's sell-out open-air production of Toad Of Toad Hall.

"There are quite a lot of dance routines," says the 15-year-old. "Badger is not that nimble on his feet. And neither am I."

And just like Badger, Edward can be pretty grumpy when woken up suddenly. "It happens to Badger a surprising number of times!"

Edward, who comes from Shipley, is delighted to join the cast for his youth theatre debut. Delighted too that he has got such an interesting character to play with.
