2019 Study Group Show

"The November 2019 monthly meeting at St Lukes was, once again, dedicated to our Study Groups Show. As in previous shows we were entertained by the ever popular and lively Ukulele Group, Fun Singers and Senior Moments. The Recorders Group ensured that serious classical music was not ignored and gave a very polished performance.

This year for the first time we had contributions by the Folk Singing Group and the Radio Production Group. These new additions to the programme were particularly welcomed by the audience, especially the Radio Production Group as its spoken word act gave us something other than music.

The show was held together by the irrepressible Alan Rose, ‘Mr Showtime’, who kept us entertained between the acts with an endless supply of jokes. In keeping with our audience ‘of a certain’ age he included several Tommy Cooper jokes and even wore a fez to go with them!

It is hoped that we can have another show next year. In the meantime all of our study groups are encouraged to stretch their imaginations as to how they could give a lively, interesting and entertaining short performance illustrating what they do. We are keen to increase the variety of acts and to include different study groups each year." Peter Hutchinson
