Thomas Arms, Llanelli
Cawl a Chân
For
those that made it to the Thomas Arms on Friday 5th March 2010, I don't need
to explain the treat we all experienced.
Gillian Elisa got the laughter muscles working hard. She is a well known Welsh
Comedian and Actress who has appeared in Pobol y Cwm. Gillian Elisa's
character Mrs Olwen Tegwen Thomas (Mrs O.T.T.) was first to take
centre stage. Cellan Davies, Scarlets Choir member, was one of Mrs OTT's
victims and even I was singled out by her once she spotted my camera, although
I got of lightly compared to some of the other audience members!
Following
the auction Mrs OTT made the onstage transformation into Olga Teknikalitch
whose Eastern European accent whilst conversing in Welsh was impressive in its
own right. Lucy and Katie Redman, international champion cheerleaders
accompanied Mrs OTT and friends throughout the evening. Gillian Elisa's finale
introduced us to Delyth Dawel, loosely translated to Quiet Delyth, who did not
live up to her name!
Singing was a forte of Gillian Elisa and her characters.
