Past members are invited to an 'open' dress rehearsal on Friday 28th July at 2.00 pm (please contact Mel and Pete for an invitation). There will also be an open evening on Sunday 30th July from 6 pm giving past and present members a chance to reminisce over past productions.
This year's production will be the first performed in the new building at Thrigby Wildlife Gardens and everybody at Broadlands Theatre Group would like to say a big thank you to Ken and Beryl Sims and all the staff at the Wildlife Gardens who have shown such great support and continually go the extra mile on the group's behalf.
Tickets for the public performances of the play on Friday evening and Saturday matinee and evening will be available from Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens from Monday 24th July.
