Dorrington continued with their tradition of getting bigger and better each year, and this was no disappointment! With some classic songs throughout the night, some marvellous acting on a magnificent stage and of course Dorrington’s own ‘Royal Collection’ dance troupe.

Mr Stink (2016)

With the previous success on a David Walliams Gangsta Granny, Dorrington embarked on turning Mr Stink into their next production. Although the play was called Mr Stink, it was anything but amazing acting, singing and dancing all around. Each year, the productions got bigger and this was no exception! A 4D performance if there was one; Mr Stink’s burps could be seen by all in the audience (some say they could smell it too!)
As always there was lots of singing and dancing on the stage. Truly magnificent.

The main cast included:

Isa Khan as Mr Stink
Tabasum Kiyani as Chloe
Huda Ali as Mum
Abidah Ahmed as Annabel
Suha Rahman as the Prime Minister
Salehedin Almontaser as the Prime Minister’s husband
Ibrahim Shabir as Dad
Hana Ravat as the main reporter
Bailey Holden-Blair as Mr Stink’s dog
