Chairmans November 2024 Letter
November 2024
We are well along with rehearsing our two 1-Act comedies which we are performing on Thur-Sat 28/29/30th of November. More info elsewhere...
Please let me know if you want to volunteer for helping out on the play-night with "Front-of-House" duties to see our lovely audience seated, fed and watered, and we shall get things organised to our usual chaotic but friendly standard of excellence.
There's a "set-build" session this Sunday 10th November from 10:00am
For those of you locally, the grand “Switch-On” of the village Christmas Tree lights is on Sunday November 24th, at the recreation ground... so do come along and say hello.
We hope to see you all… and all your chums and relatives at the show. Tickets going fast especially Friday night.
Jan

Please feel free to suggest any new (or even) old social activities that you and very likely others in the WP's will enjoy. Speak to Jan (not at rehearsal... she's busy directing..) or send in an email or text via the contact on the contact page...
We'd like to do more WP events including the patrons and the wider village community as well as the "usual suspects" - our faithful members. We'll probably do a Quiz next year...
See if you can sound out people you know what they would like to do of a weekend afternoon or evening for entertainment - how about a Karaoke night? Or, a Race Night.
Westoning Players offer amateur drama as an entertaining and rewarding leisure hobby for adults. Every show is different. Each show has different needs for the actors, the set constructors, the Back-stage and Front-of-House teams too. And different challenges for the director and producer. We invite you come on down and get involved. Bring a buddy along too. It's great fun. Cheap giggle therapy too!
Please come and see what we are about. We will need to have another show to choose, plan and execute for April 2025, starting mid-January 25. So we need more ACTORS, directors and everybody* else... the more people participating the wider the choice of plays that we can stage...
*All skills & talents are needed including tea-making and empathising, carpentry, electrical, ladder-holding, tantrum management... etc. Ideal for a parent wanting a local outlet to escape for a couple of hours. We can even do job-shares for couples so you can alternate... You owe it to your own mental health.
