Our House - The Madness Musical 26th - 29th October 2011

Our House is based on the music of Madness, and tells the story of Joe Casey who, on the night of his 16th birthday and trying to impress his girlfriend, Sarah, must decide whether to run or stay and face the music.  One path leads to shame, rejection and a prison sentence, the other to riches, a glamorous lifestyle and his dreams fulfilled – or does it? 

The show was performed at Queen Mary’s Hall, Queen Mary’s College Basingstoke over 3 nights and four shows.  Attending the auditions was Tom Isted who, having performed in this show as Joe Casey, changed his career plans completely and became a professional actor.
