Those of us old enough to remember Happy Days on the telly now have the chance to relive the nostalgia as the touring musical makes its way around the country.

As a huge fan you can imagine my joy at being asked to play a cameo at the New Victoria Theatre in Woking...as a TV announcer. Talk about art imitating life.

In the spirit of the Fonz, I would give the experience a massive thumbs up.

The show stars Ben Freeman as the Fonz, Heidi Range as Pinky Tuscadero and Cheryl Baker as Mrs. Cunningham.

Henry Winkler, the original Fonz, is an advisor to the production, but it is all the brainchild of London based producer Amy Anzel.

The show was the first big theatre production to raise money through crowdfunding - £250,000 in total.
