My friend Sue Berridge, who has died aged 70, was a drama teacher of prodigious talent and energy admired for giving her all to her profession and her local community.
From 1995 until her retirement in 2014, Sue was head of drama at Coleridge community college in Cambridge, where the school’s annual shows, which she produced and directed, were spectacular. Her production of My Fair Lady in 1998 was of very high quality and was followed the next year by Like We Were Then, co-written by Sue and a parent, Mike Levy, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the college. In 1999 she helped pupils to produce a film of a mock prime minister’s questions that won the Y10 Motorola parliamentary video competition in the East Anglia region.
