The Sheriff is still nasty but sports number 13 size wellington boots (very Doz) and a cameo highlight features two, hardly-out-of-the-burrow dancing rabbits.

The club has shown total faith in Dina and her diverse cast, booking the show for a season of eight performances, October 31 and November 2–11 with a choice of afternoons, evenings and nights.
