The Five
Originals
 Pat Oliver
Can we ask how old you are?
You should know better! [That'll be no then! -
Ed]
What starring role did you perform
in the 1983 Show?
I think it has to be the 'Antony and Clepatra' sketch.
What do the words 'Gang Show' mean
to you?
People of all ages in the Scout and Guide Associations in Inverness
coming together with a common goal of entertainment for the whole
community.
Why do you keep coming back for
more every two years?
I really do enjoy every minute of it!
Share with us some words about The Five Originals.
Gang Show has been a great asset to Scouting and Guiding in the
Inverness area over the years. It has brought together people
of all ages and from all parts of the area, from Aviemore to
Kiltarlity and from Nairn to Inverness.
What was your starring role be in
the 2003 Show?
Well, it had to have been 'The Five Originals'!
What is your one-word summary of
Gang Show?
Magic!
So, what about the 6 months of
rehearsals?
It can be very entertaining, and to watch the young people struggling
to learn the dance routines, then see them on stage enjoying every
minute of it, is very pleasing. In every person is an actor trying to
get out!
What have you personally enjoyed
about the Show?
Apart from the 1983 and 2003 Shows, I've been assistant convenor or
convenor and have enjoyed watching the professionalism of the Show
grow and the young people coming back from Cubs, then Scouts, then
young adults and eventually leaders! It has all been so worthwhile.
The views and
opinions expressed by The Five Originals are not necessarily those of
the Scout Association, and are definitely not those of Inverness Area
Gang Show!
