Our next production
To be announced.
Anything Goes! another huge success!
Putting on another show in the week following the Bollington
Festival 2009 might have chanced an audience absent through
exhaustion! But it was not the case with hardly a seat to be
had. Another huge success for this enthusiastic and talented
group. It was no coincidence that the final performance was played
on the night of the final of Britain's Got Talent. We know where
the talent is - it's here in Bollington!
Showtime 2008 a huge success!
November 2008 saw a great production of selected show favourites.
Brilliant Godspell!
The company received a tremendous response for their performance of Godspell in May 2008. This most energetic musical on the life of Christ provided many excellent personal and group displays of singing and acting. Stephen (Jesus) was superbly played by Stephen Clayton and wonderfully supported by David (John the Baptist / Judas) played by Tavis Hill.
