A message from the organisers of the first professional theatre night last Saurday at The Hall:

‘A HUGE thank you to all who came to The Hall on Saturday night for our first professional theatre night. We hope that you had a great evening!

“Old Herbaceous” was an absolute treat, thanks so much to Giles Shenton Productions!

We really enjoyed bringing this to our community in and around our parishes! Thanks also to our wonderful volunteers, without whom we couldn’t stage events like this.

Put Saturday 14th June in your diaries now – our next theatre night sees GSP presenting “Into the Breach”. Written and performed by Mark Carey, this is another absolutely fantastic show!’
