MUMMERS UPDATE
The Mummers duly played Slad, Oakridge, The Bear and then The Stirrup Cup on Sunday December 15, with THE ODDFATHER, their tale of Bisley's brave battle against the notorious Oakridge mafia gang The Simplanos.
The Butchers Arms was probably our best show, actually - the Oakridge locals really got into it and gave as good as they got, which made for a lot of fun.
I don't think our enraged, and possibly mildly unhinged, correspondent (scroll to the bottom) was there; if s/he was, s/he didn't say hello.
We raised £476.76 for Longfields and Acorns Hospices.
Thanks in alphabetical order to: Amber, Dan, Dave, Dean, Doug, Jake, Lucca, Neil, Rob, Sam, and Toni.
Special mentions for Mark, our musical director and squeezebox maestro, and for Dean, who only moved to the village from Ireland last year and pitched straight in.
There is some discussion of staging a Summer Mummers, and the script for next Christmas has already started percolating under the working title THE OAKRIDGE SCROOGE: HOW BISLEY SAVED CHRISTMAS.
Thanks in particular to Dave Partridge for driving the whole thing; to Julian Partridge at The Stirrup Cup for allowing us to ‘rehearse' there in the weeks beforehand, to Bev and Eve for bacon sarnies on the morning, and to them all for hosting our final show; to Henry at The Woolpack, to Ben at The Butchers Arms, and to Stefan and Lou at The Bear for hosting our other ‘performances'; and, finally, to Shane and Ceri Nash for their sterling efforts with the collection buckets.
