The advantage of having a director who is actually from England, is that Proper English Accents are Required. Not sure quite how or why, but she's maintained her lovely accent throughout her twenty-five years here in Canada, and her husband (who also handles the music, sound, and directs the set construction) also has a good one as well.
She often does the voice of the narrator for the pantos the theatre company does, and tries out for quite a lot of acting stuff in the area.
One of the two reasons I didn't get a role in the play is that 1: My English accent is still terrible, and 2: The roles I'd tried out for I either wasn't physically suited for, or I wasn't quite able to go "big" and expressive enough.
