This year’s UIV musical production of ‘Honk’ proved to be a phenomenal success.  The farmyard tale, followed Ugly (Emma Fox) – a cygnet born into a duck family.   Ridiculed for his appearance, Ugly leaves the farm on a quest for acceptance.  Barely surviving the dangers of the world outside the farm, with no family or help, Ugly discovers his true identity as a swan, before returning to the farm, to be made fleet leader.  Stunning performances came from Emma, Hester and Sarah  to name a few, but the whole cast was both dedicated and convincing in each and every one of their roles.  The whole production was really fun to watch – with an original portrayal of swimming on stage!  Flora, Olivia and Octavia in particular were hilarious in their cameo-roles and combined with a witty script made the night such an enjoyable one for the audience.  Well done!
