ort on 2023124 activi from the Chair We feel it has been another successful and progressive year for the Company. Last October, we staged Little Shop of Horrors at Seckford theatre. Good audien numbers and a fine production well received. Our annual panto in February was Jack and the Beanstalk wtth great props, a giant inflatable beanstalk and an enthralling giant costume that drew great reaction from the audience including the children who were in awe. The summer saw our second recent exclusively under 18s shows: 'Spongebob the Musical - Youth,. This was another opportunty for our very talented youngsters to make the show their own, and they rtainlY did. Our membership of youngsters continues to grow and show promise for the fvture. We are now heading into yet another show this autumn, The Railway Children, which will test our staging and presentation skills. Public interest feels good, and we look for another great production all round. We continue to organise social events to keep the inclusivity feel in the group. At this point we are shortly due to vacate our workshop hut as our lease is not being renewed. We have had costs in the year for vacating our old hut and on the new accommodation, mainly for storage purposes. We feel for now we are settled with our accommodation situation and plans to maximise and utilise the costumes and props for hire as well as other revenue streams are being examined. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our members and friends for their continued support, the committee for their enthusiasm and fundraising. Lily Griffiths Chairperson Co4
