Summer is looming ahead inviting our thespians to rehearse around swimming pools up and down the Costas with a script in one hand and a drinky-poos in the other - any excuse! They deserve it and sincere congratulations to all for raising tremendous amounts of money to help local charities. Also, good luck to the Costa Blanca Drama Festival, pity it does not get more general support across the amdram entertainment spectrum.

Cardinal Belluga Theatre Group: A fantastic night of music and entertainment was provided by the group the other night. If you didn’t make it you definitely missed a great 50’s and 60’s fund raising night. How come we always know all the words to


those golden oldies? Everyone was up jiving, twisting and jigging along, what a great feeling! Many thanks to all who supported the event which raised over 300€. For further info, contact Maria on 966 715 891.
