From each and every single one of us, cast and crew, thank you! Thank you for allowing us to entertain you, to tell this story, to bring to life the emotions and depths of these lives lived. Thank you for all the songs you sung with us, for your claps and your cheers, the sequins, maracas and feather boas. Thank you for standing for us, and with us. Thank you for supporting community theatre and a group of individuals who have come from many walks of life to share with you their passion.

With our season of The Boy From Oz now having reached its end, we bid you farewell until next time. After all, we’d rather leave while we’re in love ❤️

Thanks to all those who have donated, and all the sponsors who have stepped forward for Lyme patients. Most of all, thanks to Tanner and Ed and their families for all the work they're putting into raising funds for the LDAA! 🙏💚
