This was a Christmas show at the Hexagon Theatre in Reading not a pantomime but a musical based on the traditional Christmas Story of the Nativity.
The show was called 'ROCK NATIVITY' Mary played the part of the Virgin Mary, Allan Love played Joseph, an amazing Colm Wilkinson played the part of Herod and Michael Cashman the Angel Gabriel, all in all a superb production
And speaking strictly for myself the two months of December 1980 and January 1981 were the busiest and most expensive of my life to that date.
There were matinees and evening shows almost every day apart from Christmas Day, and as I live in Wales there was a tremendous amount of traveling involved but it was worth it just to hear her voice.
I must not forget to add, I met my future husband Chris at one of the shows, he had travelled from Yorkshire to see her so I wasn't the only mad person at this event!
