Lethargic Leader

A cast of young pupils were left in tears after their town’s mayor fell asleep in the audience as they performed a school musical. Children at Vale First and Middle School in Worthing, West Sussex, were excited to be entertaining Mayor Noel Atkins and his wife Helena at their production of Bugsy Malone. However, the budding actors’ confidence was crushed when their guests of honour dozed off within minutes of curtains up on their rendition of the gangster story.
Some of the actors, aged 11, were left sobbing during the interval, believing that the couple’s attitude was a reflection of their performance. Parents condemned Atkins’s behavior as “appalling”.
