What is it?

Janice Connolly returns to the OJST with that loveable, straight talking housewife, Barbara Nice.  A mother of two from Stockport, Barbara is worried that we are living in a world of ever-diminishing friendliness.   A world where we increasingly keep ourselves to ourselves, heads down, afraid to catch each other’s eye.  She wants us all to stand proud, to be open with ourselves, to look the world right in the eye and to proudly declare… ‘Hello!’  Because if we can’t do that, what’s the point?

This self-penned comedy reminds us how easy it is to spread a little happiness and make our world a more joyful place to be.  A show to lift the post New Year blues!
