Jason Manford wowed by Watermill’s Barnum




THERE was great surprise among the audience at the Watermill on Saturday as comedian Jason Manford turned up to see Barnum - and he was full of praise on social media.

And he wasn’t the only celebrity spotted in the stalls that week.

Jason posted later that same evening: “Have driven down to @watermill tonight to see Barnum. Amazing how they’ve turned this tiny stage into a full on circus! Brilliant performances & music.”

The team at the Bagnor theatre were delighted to welcome Jason to the circus when he came to see their summer production - in the same week that musical theatre star Elaine Paige popped in to take in the show too.

Jason - himself a presenter, actor and singer - met members of the company after the show before taking to social media to share how much he enjoyed the experience.

Barnum has been wowing sold-out crowds for the last nine weeks.

The show closes this Sunday, with The King's Speech already waiting in the wings to open on September 20.
