Re-introducing Adrian (The old Shoe maker)

Adrian Palmer played the part of Louis in Theatre Hullabaloo's production of Angel, by Kevin Dyer, in spring 2012. He is returning to play the part of the Old Man in The Elves and the Shoemakers, which will be touring to venues across the UK this winter. Here is a bit of information about Adrian:

I was born in Richmond, Surrey nearly 54 years ago and brought up in Banstead, also in Surrey.  I now live peripatetically in the North of England on a narrow boat.  Currently moored in Sandbach, Cheshire, where I am appearing in Much Ado About Nothing as Leonato for Folksy Theatre, on tour to open air venues mainly in the NW and the West Country.  Full details - www.folksytheatre.co.uk/

The Elves and the Shoemakers was a particularly favourite story of mine as a child so I am really looking forward to playing the Old Shoemaker.  I still wonder what is the moral - is it a homily to patriarchal capitalism where the kind governors look after the workers who have made their fortune or is there a deeper message ?  I could ruminate further on this.

I have worked for Hullabaloo once before in 'Angel' about a friendship between a young girl and an old woman slipping into dementia so am very pleased to be returning and looking forward to being part of a great team.
