“I first saw Playtime Poppy performances dressed as Leo the Brucemore lion, then later performed in Poppy productions on the Brucemore stage. The joy and excitement expressed by these audiences reinforced my belief in the power of theatre to entertain and educate children, and I’ve been an ardent Poppy supporter since.”
