Para1.20 | Afer a difcult start to the theatre’s return from COVID, this year became more of a ‘normality’ as we staged productons without restrictons. Due to the late change to the previous pantomime, we moved back to the January slot for ‘Mother Goose’ and then the Youth showcased their talents twice in this season. We contnued to engage with the membership through social events, showcase performances and newsleters. A new Producton Team has been formed and we are making new plans for a play, youth show and panto in the next season. |
