Thanks to Shrewsbury Committee Chair Angela for presenting Brad with his award 🌟

Terribly sad to hear that Phil Butler, who you will remember as Dandini in Cinderella, has very sadly passed away, only 51 years of age which is far too soon. Sending huge love to his Mother, Sister and Daughters ❤️

Latest blog post and a big thank you to all that donated! The just giving page closes this evening so do have a look ❤️

A huge thank you ❤️… …to everyone that donated, that sent messages of support and that we met along the way, We had the most wonderful adventure. The boys had a real sense of achievement and so they should. With your kindness and support they raised a whopping £3,690.00 for the charity. The Justgiving page will close...

Yes it’s true, I’m 36.8 plus VAT today, thanks for the birthday wishes so far.

Next week this old Dame is accompanying my boys who are hiking 175km for the charity we support, I’d really appreciate it if you could share the below link, have a read or donate if you can. Huge love to you all, wish me luck!

We will of course endeavour to find alternative dates for those that have tickets should you wish to hold onto them. Thank you to those that came and to those that were booked in for the remaining shows. Your support has been overwhelming.

Thank you to Rob, Alex, David, Craig and all staff at T7, Victoria McCabe, Harry Wi******er, Kai Davies, Olivia Hewings, Eric Smith, Dave Bibby, Matt Daines, Hayden Parker and Gabriel Hinchliffe for their guest spots, thank you to Christopher Haley for his beautiful direction and lastly, huge love, and thanks, to Simon Hanson for helping me to create our little show.

Statement:

Following the latest advice from UK Government, Shropshire will move into Tier 3 restrictions, and Theatre Severn will be closed from Thursday 31 December until further notice.

As a result, performances of We'll Have To Do It Again Then... Won't We?! between 31 December and 3 January have been postponed. We're so sorry we cannot finish the festive season with you as planned.

You are welcome to either contact Box Office (01743 281281) when convenient to request a credit or refund, or retain your tickets and await a further update. We plan to explore the possibility of rescheduling performances on later dates in 2021.

Thank you for your support and understanding. We can't wait to see you all again when the time is right.

So lovely to be back on stage at Theatre Severn with our little show, three shows yesterday with great audiences and back again 29th, 30th, 31st December and 2nd and 3rd Jan.

A few tickets are still available, Simon Hanson and our special guests would love to see you there

Much love, Brad

Hello all!

Many of you will have seen my posts last year when my family and I were raising money to buy Christmas boxes for disadvantaged children in a camp outside Pretoria, South Africa.

It's been a horrendous year for so many of us but we are going to try and match the amount we raised last year to alleviate some of the stress on the charity, please do read all about it by clicking on the below link.

Once again, I know it's been a tough year, but whatever you can do to support, however little is a HUGE help, thank you so much, with my love, as always

Hello, I've had some lovely messages via this page recently from people that say they will miss panto this year. For some reason the pages app has updated and I lost access to some of the most recent ones. If I didn't reply to you it's because I've lost access so please accept my apologies, do send me the message again if you like and I'll be in touch.

I hope you're all keeping safe and well xx

Whoops, I deleted the previous post in error, putting link up again to the announcement. Thanks to everyone that left kind messages of support xx

We are very sad to announce that this year’s pantomime BEAUTY AND THE BEAST has been postponed until 2021.

Theatre Severn and Evolution Productions have reluctantly reached this decision due to continued uncertainty about when live indoor performances can take place without social distancing.

Today, we begin the task of contacting all ticketholders and appreciate your patience while we work through this. We kindly ask that ticketholders do not contact us before we have been in touch with further advice.

We know you all love panto season as much as we do, and we can’t wait to share this spectacular show with you next year. BEAUTY AND THE BEAST will return Fri 3 Dec 2021 – Sun 2 Jan 2022, bigger and better than ever! Read our full statement here http://orlo.uk/83qVn

If you have tickets for another show during the Autumn season, we do not have any updates at this time, but will share any news with you at the earliest opportunity. A full list of confirmed programme alterations can be found here http://orlo.uk/d6FcJ

Last year I was raising money for Christmas boxes for disadvantaged children in South Africa, many of you kindly donated via my JustGiving page and I wanted to share an update

Thanks to you....and your kind donation last November we were able to supply Christmas gift packages to over 430 disadvantaged children from various camps in and around Johannesburg, South Africa. In total you helped us to raise an amazing £1,820 (over 40,000 South African Rand).

We teamed up with Mary Erasme, a teacher at Rivonia Primary School in Johannesburg, who runs a student social outreach group. Mary and the other teachers were able to purchase each child in need a backpack which contained at least one toy and the practical items they desperately need such as toiletries, clothing and stationary.

As we raised enough money to more than cover the costs of the gifts we were able to hold a party for each camp and provide a ‘Christmas Lunch’ and disco for the children.
Your donation has made such a difference to these children and we thank you most sincerely. Brad, Shane, Toby, Riley and Alfie x
