A very special show that saw us move to (what would be our constant home for many years to come) The Carraigeworks in Leeds after a kind invite from the then artistic director, who'd heard of our work.
This story of a rag bag bunch of underdogs fighting against overwhelming odds became extra special when we were joined by Roger Milward, the once captain of the Great British rugby team. This legend of the game sadly passed away in 2016 but all those involved in the show will remember that special time that he was part of Up 'n Under.
One of my happiest memories will always be the cast and Roger standing in the middle of Millennium Square, before our first performance, watching our feature on BBC Look North on the big screen.
