We opened the doors at 6.30 pm and the hall was packed to capacity by 6.50. It was a grand night , which I shall share properly tomorrow.
Velvet Voiced Linda almost stole the show with her spirited A child’s Christmas In Wales by Dylan Thomas and I loved Nina’s “ A Filipina In Trelawnyd “ which had the same vibe



That was a lot of money raised and well done by all. Committees organising such events can become difficult to be part of, but in this case I think it must have been very cohesive.
ReplyDeleteHow utterly marvelous that so much was raised in just 2 hours and that the hall was filled by an appreciative audience! Loved the video and look forward to what you post tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteApplause, applause for you and all involved in the production!!
Happy hugs!
Forgot to say that ages ago when the world was younger, I bought DH the album of "A Child's Christmas in Wales", read by Dylan Thomas, and we still have it.
DeleteHugs!
Thank you for the glimpse into the wonderfully successful stage performances. It sounds to perfection.
ReplyDeleteThe audience looks very happy with the show.
Now that the first show is over, you are more than ready for the next one.
Enjoy!
That was a triumph! Congratulations to everyone, including the loyal audience.

ReplyDeleteWhat a performance! Everyone is so good. There’s so much talent and heart in Trelawnyd. John, I hope you and everyone who was a part of this feels like a star tonight.❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️🌟

ReplyDeleteWell done to all.
ReplyDeleteYou and your village are amazing.
ReplyDeleteWell done to all. Maybe next year you will have to do the show twice over two nights, or maybe a matinee at the weekend. It sounds as though it was very popular.
ReplyDeleteI read Dylan Thomas' A Child's Christmas in Wales every year, it is a lovely little book. :-)
