THE CEMETERY CLUB

Directed

By Margaret Morris

Three lively women haven’t let widowhood get them down. As good friends over the years they have shared joys, pleasures and woes, and they wouldn’t do anything topsoil the threesome, would they? Or would they…?

There are laughs galore, a tear here and there and some unexpected twists to keep you on the edge of your seats.

Do come along and enjoy the complications they make for themselves in ‘The Cemetery Club’

Wednesday August 6 to Saturday August 9 at 8.pm

Tickets £8.00

 

The bar at the Barn is staffed by volunteers and more people are needed to help with this

The bar is open Friday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes as well as on performance nights.

If you feel you would like to help behind the bar please contact Vicky Mills on 01293 536600

Full training will be given.

 

 

A very fond farewell to…..

Ann Stannett who is off to Bridlington?

John and Margaret Stone who are off to Northumberland

Brian and Liz Pedlow who are off to Norfolk

and Leonard Doolan who is off to Cirencester .

Many thanks to them all for the hard work and support they have given to Ifield Barn over many years. We owe them a huge debt of gratitude and we wish them luck

 

Sunday lunches

We are always looking for volunteers to help with lunches in many different ways. If you are able to clear tables, wash and iron the tablecloths, act as a kitchen manager to check cleanliness and replenish stocks of cleaning materials etc or you would like to help cook a lunch, we would love to hear from you. You would only be asked to help occasionally to spread the load amongst more of our members.

We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at the lunches.
