 A Place of Bards and Barddoniaeth!

This section will be dedicated to our members who occasionally like to use our language and put it to pretty music or give it a rhythmic pattern - basically those talented enough to write songs or poetry!

It is a custom of our society at aftershow parties someone - usually a man writes a men's song and a lady writes a ladies song - to rewrite the lyrics of one of the songs from the show using all the mishaps and things that happened backstage during the week of the show as inspiration!  Here are a few of the outcomes...

Sit Down You're Rocking The Boat - from Guys and Dolls - Words

Do You Remember Those Good Days At Christchurch? - from Joseph - Words

One More Hit Show For Christchurch - from Joseph - Words

 Watch Our Scenery Grow

I have had thinkings and thought it would be a nice idea to allow everyone - not just cast members - to watch our scenery grow!  Over the next few weeks I will take photos of our scenery as it develops and add them to the website.  So watch this space!

Look out for when we start the scenery for Adventure In Pantoland!
