14 adults and 10 children with the
opportunity to engage and learn the skills
of the dramatic arts. This included learning

acting, costume design, lighting design and
photography.
The performance of ‘Big Dick Whittington’
ran for 2 nights in June 2024. This brought
over 150 additional people to Hudswell
Village Hall. Creating this ‘adult’ pantomime
has allowed those who would not normally
engage within the arts to see a different
style and kind of theatre, therefore offering
the opportunity for them to engage withing
the arts.
The performance of The Wizard of Oz ran
for 4 nights in December 2024. This
brought over 300 people to Hudswell
Village.
The charity used this production as an
opportunity to develop the skills of its
members by also supporting our young
people to choreograph a dance in the
show.
The charity continued to offer low priced
tickets to the events to promote
engagement.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |
