Ian Dickens Productions Ltd is proud to announce a national number one tour of the world famous Daisy Pulls it Off starring Kim Hartman, who starred as Helga in all 96 episodes of the BBC comedy ‘Allo ‘Allo, Ben Roberts, who played Chief Inspector Conway on Thames TV's The Bill for 14 years, Julia Mallam, Emmerdale's Dawn Hope, and Carly Hillman, Nicki di Marco from EastEnders.
Denise Deegan's Daisy Pulls it Off is an affectionate, keenly observed parody of life in an English boarding school for girls of a bygone era. A smash hit in the West End, this topping yarn was described by The Sunday Times as "perfectly ripping, absolutely spiffing not to mention scrummy entertainment".
The plucky heroine Daisy Meredith, an elementary school girl, is forced to face and overcome snobbish prejudice from both staff and pupils. But, with her chum, Trixie Martin the madcap poet, she forms a secret society to find the missing treasure that would save the school. Along the way she also finds the time for a dramatic cliff top rescue and a jolly good game of hockey!
This enchanting nostalgic production is brimful of old fashioned values, midnight feats and a jolly good adventure story to boot that will appeal to the whole family.
