50th ANNIVERSARY PARTY - 3RD JUNE 2023

The club celebrated its 50th Anniversary with a party laid on for current and past members, some of whom appeared in the very first production from 1973. Over 50 attended, and many took the opportunity to peruse the club's archives with photographs, posters, programmes and reviews from all the previous productions.


A great evening was had by all, finished off with some audience participation games which caused great hilarity.


Here's to the next 50 years!
