Thank you!

A BIG THANK YOU to our wonderful audiences for coming and supporting us this week. From the roars of laughter, cheers and applause we know you all had a great time at Me and My Girl, as did we! Many thanks also to our talented Director Mandy Sayers and MD Chris Burrett for all their hard work and inspiration, our fabulous Band (wow!), and our dedicated stage team and Committee. There are too many behind the scenes both backstage and front of house to mention - it takes many, many people to present a show like this and we are lucky at PBGS to have so many talented members and helpers. 

Our next show will be Gilbert & Sullivan's ghost filled melodrama Ruddigore, opening on the 30th April at Woodside Hall, Hitchin! We look forward to seeing you all then.
