We have been inundated with calls and messages asking about our annual Pantomime, but sadly due to Covid,  St Joseph's Hall remains closed.  However all being well the Hall will be re-opening in the Spring.

Meanwhile a few months ago, we decided we would perform Murder Mystery Nights until the Hall reopens,  the first of which was last Month and was a complete sell out just  two days after tickets went on sale.
