Pudge's play - Hiawyn Oram

Pudge decides he wants to put on a play with the help of his friends. They get suitably kitted out in home-made costumes and then all the friends get stage-fright and refuse to go on. It is left to Pudge to perform the whole play single-handedly - which he does expertly, much to the admiration of his friends and family.
