A very Happy New Year from all at the Methodist Church and especially from the MAD Company. Once again we have thoroughly enjoyed preparing for this performance. Rehearsals began in September and a lot of hard work, sweat and tears has been put in by the actors and production team. Our talented director Vanessa Breach, has once again written and directed the pantomime.
Due to the success of the previous years, we have had to offer a morning performance. This means that record numbers will be attending this year, and we thank you for your support; it is of great encouragement to us.
So sit down, relax and enter into the magical world of pantomime.
Let us hope that the Sleeping Beauty falls in love with our handsome prince and
we can all live happily ever after.
Revd Phil Thomas
