Embarrassed Edinburgh family 'told off for miming' along to Annie at Playhouse

An Edinburgh family who took a trip to see Annie at the Edinburgh Playhouse have said that stewards made them "feel like children" when they were scolded for miming during the show.

Pensioner Christine Field and her sister Liz McLaughlin, along with their two nieces Dot Smith and Sam Braid, who are in their 40s, had been looking forward to the hit show and were excited as they purchased their drinks before making their way to their seats on Saturday March 25.

They asked a stewardess if they would be allowed to sing along with the iconic Annie tunes but were informed that no singing was allowed in the gallery.
