A YOUNG Stevenston girl is about to make her debut on stage in Glasgow – in the cast of the hit musical Bugsy Malone.
Sophie Bain, 11, will be seen on stage in the Glasgow Theatre's Creative Learning team production at the end of the month.
The 90 strong cast of young performers aged nine to 18 years old will embark on an intense two week course led by industry professionals culminating with three live performances on the Theatre Royal stage on Friday, July 31 and Saturday, August 1.
Set in 1929 in New York’s criminal underworld, Mob boss Fat Sam is under threat from Dandy Dan’s new gang and their latest weapon – the dreaded splurge gun.
His only hope is Bugsy Malone, a washed up but well-meaning boxer who is thrust into the gangster limelight.
With twists, turns, gangsters, showgirls and splurge fights galore the plot unfolds leading to a spectacular showdown at Fat Sam’s Grand Slam.
