Cinderella 2014 - Last Chance!

Hello!
So there are 3 shows left... they are:

DATE                                     TIME

Friday 31st January        7:00pm  (50% sold)

Saturday 1st February    1:30pm (90% SOLD)

Saturday 1st  February    5:45pm SOLD OUT

IVER HEATH NEW VILLAGE HALL – SL0 0DA

For this week only, please call Carol, club secretary, to book seats. Her number is  07941 818 621. Please do call. Last weekend, 2 shows sold out and we had to turn people away from both of them.

I just wanted to take this oppotunity and say a big thank you to everyone who has already booked tickets or seen the show and to the amazing crew and cast. With flying scenery and a rather scary bedroom scene, and not because the Dames take their dressing gowns off, this panto has been the best I have ever been involved in. One review on our facebook page commented on how good the singing was whilst another one said that they had relatively low expectations (well, it is local village AmDram) and they were blown away with how good and professional it is. Well done all!!

 Tonight's RehearsalWednesday 29th January. It is 7pm to 8:45pm ONLY.

Tombola!

We are looking for tombola prizes. Do you have a christmas present you could donate? Or could your local business donate a prize? Started a diet? Why not donate your choccies!#

Will the panto be on DVD?

Yes! This year it is being professionally filmed by Bob Simpson. DVDs are £8.00 and forms available from Carol during the show.

Photos!

Finally a big hello to Sophie Lowden of Smiles Photography who took some amazing pictures (a couple at the end) during one of the shows last week. They are all on Facebook for you to like and share for FREE - just remember her name and if you ever need a photographer or an animator - then message her! 

What time are Cast and Crew needed?

Have a look at the last entry on the blog ( scroll down).

Thank you -- Matt Streuli, Vice Chairman and Panto Dame

Advertise!

Before and after the show and during the interval we run a looping PowerPoint presentation on the ‘Safety Curtain’. This year I am offering for adverts or business cards to be put on the slideshow along with our photographs from rehearsals and information about the club.

I’m asking for a £10 donation and a A5 shaped advert or business card which would fit perfectly - it would be seen a couple of times at least each show. Maybe feature a special offer? Tempt people to use your service straight after the show? Please email me and visit www.ihdc.co.uk for more information and to take up this special opportunity

What time is cast and crew needed?

But I've forgotten the words to the songs?!

December 2014 - NEWS/Enewsletter

Hello!

So as the nights get longer and Mr Frost makes a more regular appearance, here’s the latest from Stoneybroke AKA IHDC:

Start Spreading the News!      

Have you spotted us in the local papers? We’ve made it into three papers in the past few weeks! The cuttings are on our Facebook page and on the Press page of www.ihdc.co.uk

This little bit of press coverage has really helped and we’ve had some big group bookings in the past couple of weeks – so nag your friends and family –spread the news!

Best Sales EVER!

Chairwoman and Box Office extraordinaire Sandra commented this week that she’s never seen sales this good before Christmas. We’ve had some big groups book (hello to Iver Heath Brownies and the Automotive CUS team at Bosch!) and some more due too. As we’ve said we hate to turn people away so please nag your friends and family to call now otherwise the show they want to come to might be sold out – even before Christmas! During our recent adventures at the Richings Park Christmas Fayre (where Grizelda flirted and sang with The Salvation Army) and the Ivers Christmas Light Switch-On (where lots of little ones posed for pics with Cinderella) we were actually blown away with some of the great feedback we received – especially with several locals who said that whilst we were the cheapest panto around we were definitely the best village panto they’d ever seen.

 Panto Dates and details, along with a pretty cool video is at the bottom of the email!

As always rehearsal info is along with the song lyrics on the news page of www.ihdc.co.uk - SCROLL DOWN!!

It’s Christmas!

Finally a big thank you Claire and Paul Freeman who organised and ran a Frantic Christmas social. At the time of typing this over 1000 people had seen the pictures on facebook, yet we’ve only got 180 likes on Facebook and we’ve only sold 100-ish tickets… So please, if you haven’t already find us on Facebook and click LIKE.

 From everyone at IHDC, have a safe, merry and lovely Christmas and we look forward to a fantastic 2014!
