Pamela Brown was fourteen when she wrote this, her first novel, although it wasn’t published until 1941, when she was a venerable sixteen. It was the first of a series and became a beloved children’s classic, cited as a favourite by Maggie Smith and Eileen Atkins among others. And it’s no accident that it appeals particularly to actors, because the Blue Door series follows the fortunes of a very special theatre company, set up by a particularly ambitious and determined group of children. It all begins when a new family moves into the Corner House in Fenchester. Across the road, two sets of siblings keep a watchful eye out: Sandra Fayne and her little sister Maddy from one side of the fence; Lyn Darwin and her brother Jeremy from the other. Soon it transpires that there are no fewer than three new children at the Corner House. The stage is set – literally – for a wonderful summer adventure that promises to become something much, much bigger...

What starts as a diversion to stave off boredom during the Easter holidays soon becomes much more for the seven young members of the Blue Door Theatre Company. The four girls - Lyn, Sandra, Vicky and Maddy - and three boys - Bulldog, Nigel and Jeremy - play every part in the theatre, not only on stage but off it too, producing everything from the scripts and sets to the music and costumes. They also learn that the show must go on, even in the face of their arch-enemy, Mrs Potter-Smith, local critc and leader of the Ladies' Institute. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

All about kids with agency creating the thing that they love over the mild objections of their parents. I particularly enjoyed how the 7 different kids gradually figure out what their professional ideal might be, and grow into their ambitions. I'm quite delighted to discover this author as an adult, I'm just not entirely sure what audience to suggest it to.
