Okay so this is the strangest thing I have ever had to post. A load of you were asking why we had 22 Borat DVDS, and none of us knew either. Well long story short, now I do know, so ta da - a FREE Borate DVD with every rehearsal - supply is limited to 22. Please take one, please don't make me go to the charity shop with 22 Borat DVDS 😭
