| Anecdotes The Magic Bus was my first professional job. It was a Christmas show that we toured around mid Wales, playing wherever we could. I loved it. I couldn't believe that I was suddenly being paid for what I had always done for free. I sang and danced and mugged unashamedly and loved every second. I was young and full of energy and didn't care, and this door had been opened for me to a wonderful place, and I've never looked back." "The Great Discovery Show was a play especially for kids. We toured it all around schools in Kent in the south east of England. It's title says exactly what it was about: discovery. We went from the joy of exploring our own bodies and what they could do (I seem to remember boogers and farts figuring predominantly) through communication and expression. The kids loved it. For me it was the start of my lower back trouble! Hey ho!"
