February 2023 News Update

FEBRUARY already!  We were praying that the license for the Vicar of Dibley would be granted and thankfully it has been. So full steam ahead now.  The readthrough will take place in the Jubilee Hall on Tuesday 7th February at 8pm and auditions the following week on Tues/Thurs, 14th and 16th February, same time, same place.
This is always an exciting time at the start of a new production.  Not only will the actors be agreed, but the whole crew needs to be organised to support the production.  If you fancy assisting in anyway, then please contact us (details below) or pop along on 7th Feb and meet some of our members.  This month is very busy as there is a post-Valentine party being organised for current members, HAG certainly know how to party!

HAG ROCKS! CHOIR
The Choir are already back in full voice.  Practising for the next Charity event scheduled for June.  At one point we had nearly 80 choir members, quite a feat to get everyone on the stage! Performing isn’t compulsory, but we do try to encourage it – after all, why put all the effort in and not show off what you can do?  There is safety in numbers if you are shy.

Please contact us if you are interested in joining our fun group in whatever capacity.  Stay safe and take care. contactus@hartleyartsgroup.com
