| ...affectionately known as 'BADS' |
BADS
evolved from the Leisure Club which was formed in 1976 by a group of
enthusiasts who wished to make full use of the Village Hall
facilities. Sadly, of several activities provided at that time,
BADS is the sole survivor.
The society performed annually for
many years with ‘rave revues’, however, for a variety of reasons, lost
impetus between 2007 and 2010 and needed a kick start if it was to
continue.
Over 30 people responded to a plea for support in
February 2011, with the positive result that BADS is definitely back on
track. We have a healthy bank balance, costumes, scenery, a
modular stage, and an enviable lighting and sound system as well as an
excellent base in the Rhodes Memorial Hall.
It’s
not too late if you’d like to be involved. We welcome volunteers
of all ages with a range of skills, able either to take part or help
behind the scenes. Even if you don’t want to ‘tread the boards’
there are plenty of other things to do, from set-building to sorting
out costumes, make-up, producing, directing, or generally helping out
backstage or front of house. No previous experience is required –
just a willingness to take part, either on stage or off, whilst having
a lot of fun. There is currently no membership fee – we pay just
£1 each per meeting or rehearsal to cover the costs of hire of the Hall.
The most recent production was "Comfort and Joy" by Mike Harding performed on 1st, 2nd and 3rd December 2011.
