Sinbad
Sinbad the Pantomime was produced by Lesley Smith for the Brunton Theatre in Musselburgh in the winter of 2022. Written and directed by John Binnie and designed by Robin Mitchell, the cast included Graham Crammond, Wendy Seager, Isabella Jarrett, Ross Donnachie, Eilidh Weir, Calum Barbour, Poppy Smith and a cast of local dancers. Musical Director was Tommie Travers, choreography by Amy Robinson and Lighting Design by Craig Dixon. Mischa Zielinska was the scenic artist and stage carpenter was Kevin McGuinness. The wonderful production team included Jo Kennedy, Gary Morgan, Scott Ringan, Clark Beedie and production manager David Ross. Costumes were created by the talented students on the Costume Design and Construction course at Queen Margaret University. This was the fifth consecutive panto produced by the team for the Brunton. A sixth was initially planned but sadly had to be abandoned when the building was suddenly closed in the Spring of 2023 due to safety concerns arising from the condition of aerated concrete (RAAC) in the roof.
