A Charity fundraising event is being organised by Jayne Watson in memory of her son James who was a former member of Witney Dramatic Society.
The event is being held on 16th July from 2pm onwards at Walnut Tree House, 6 Aston Road, Brighthampton OX29 7QW. There will be Music, BBQ, Raffle, Stalls, Bar and a silent auction. The funds raised are being split between Make A Wish UK and WItney Dramatic Society.
THE PROJECT:
‘Surfing’ is a short film being made for the Channel 4 Random Acts 2016 scheme. This project is part of an exciting Arts Council funded programme where up-and-coming young filmmakers, carefully selected based on their skills, experience and career goals, are commissioned to make a 3 minute creative short film.
These films will be broadcast on the Channel 4 Random Acts website and have a strong chance of being selected for broadcast on Channel 4 TV itself. The scheme aims to develop emerging talent and create visually dynamic, unique films for a national audience. We are graduates and students of Oxford University.
The Snap Theatre Company are running a community semi-professional production of 'A Midsummer Nights Dream' due to open in August. This is a unique chance to work with a recognised Theatre Company (Snap Theatre Company) and be directed by award winning playwright/director Andy Graham.
Auditions will be at The Dovecote Stables, Churchill 28th/29th May 2016.
If you would like to get involved, please contact Andy Graham (Artistic Director) on 01608 659462

In the United Kingdom, more than 1,000,000 people are living with dementia. Worldwide, at least 44 million people are living with dementia, making the disease a global health crisis that must be addressed.
A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s is life changing for the person with the disease, as well as their family and friends, but information and support are available. No one has to face Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia alone.
