DAVE HOLDEN

Member Since   1999
Official Role   Publicity Officer
Can Be Found   Acting
Group Stage Debut   “Murder in Play” in 1999 as Tim Fermor.  I have appeared in every play since.  Even when I tried to have a break they found me a small part!
Group CV   36 acting roles, with a group all-time record of 32 consecutive.
Favourite Production    
Favourite Role   Hmmmm that’s difficult.  I enjoyed playing Stuart, a very upright scoutmaster in “Gosforth’s Fete”, one of short plays in “Confusions” by Alan Ayckbourn.  I had a wonderful entrance.  Immediately after Gosforth had unwittingly revealed his affair with my fiancée, on the public address system at the village fete; I entered in full Scout uniform (shorts, hat, woggle, long socks etc) with the line “You bastard Gosforth!”  But I have had too many favourite parts to detail here.
A Bit About Me  

Stage Debut: with the Littlehampton Youth Theatre in 1970 in “The Insect Play” – Felix a poetic butterfly (the first time I wore tights and yes I still remember my first line!)
Apart from treading the boards I like all kinds of popular music (with the exception of boy bands and most of what they call R&B these days) and I can be found jumping about at gigs and festivals.   I have three sons from my first marriage, and one step son and a step daughter.  I am now happily married to Deb, who will probably take your ticket at the door when you come and see our next production.
