Where did November go?

Well from a personal point of view I'm glad to see the back of November, which has been full of family illnesses, but we did round off the month with a great Robert Powell evening in the new theatre.

Robert and Liza Goddard, assisted by friends on piano and flute, presented Silver Screen, a brief history of the movies.  From silent films to Spielberg, lots of great quotations and extracts provided ample opportunities for a wide range of voices, amongst which Michael Caine was outstanding.

Robert reminisced, too, about his previous appearances on the MGS stage, including his King Lear, when he starred with Michael Wood's Cordelia.

Our evening ended with a gala supper in the Refectory, and produced more than £1,000 towards the Drama Centre Fund.  thank you, Robert and friends.
