To The Village Players,

Dear Friends,

Re: Your Music Hall entertainment.  Tuesday June 17th 2008

On Tuesday last you again gave our clients, members of the committee and residents of the village a very enjoyable evening of entertainment. You didn’t play any parts; you were yourselves, warm friendly people, just wonderful caring members of our society. You enriched all present by your efforts and I hope you felt truly rewarded by the audience response. You definitely left all of us with a smile on our faces.We hope to be invited to another evening in the future and our members are happy to contribute to any of your incidental expenses. All the cast performed magnificently but It was great to see Pat Woodward perform word perfect and looking so much better.

Thanking you all again for a wonderful evening, Leonard Sacs would have been proud of you. 

 Yours sincerely,

Robert C. Griffin, Secretary & Trustee.

Regarding the above I too would like to add my grateful thanks to all who took part.

We were very lucky to have Joyce Forse along to play live for us on Julie Padbury's keyboard.  We also had George Simmonds,  who you may remember was with us for some of our pantomimes.  He played The Huntsman in "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" some years ago and more recently played Dame in pantomime for us.  The rest of the cast will be well-known to you all ( Hilda, Carol, Lindsey, Julie Padbury, Denise and Andy)  with two of our more recent new members ( Hayleigh and Judy) taking part. Last but not least our very own Julie Tyzack who kept us all in order as The Master of Ceremonies, and  gave us a song too on this occasion, and lastly myself, which gave us a cast of twelve.  Thanks again  to you all for your hard and dedicated work!  The show was just great and I am so proud of everyone who took part and gave of their very best.  Thank you all!   Love Pat x

THE PILNING CARNIVAL

Possibly the last ever Pilning Carnival will take place in June.  We are not running a stall this year but we do need members to sell tickets and walk with us in the procession.  We have decided on the theme of Gangsters and Molls and have been offered the loan of a 1930's style Austin car ( with driver). 

All you need to do to join in,  is get a costume together - wide lapelled jackets, baggy trousers and trilby hats for the men (with kipper ties, wooden or plastic pistols, machine guns or violin cases etc)   For the ladies straight dresses with fringes, long gloves, long beads, feather boas and head bands.  Please do join us. 

We will probably use this occasion to advertise our forthcoming pantomime, "DICK WHITTINGTON" by handing out leaflets!

Our pantomime for December 2008 will be

"Dick Whittington"
