Once again, as we like to do in the run up to Easter, we asked member to bring in prizes, and played Bingo to redistribute them.
This year the prizes included some home grown chilies, which the winners turned into a tasty meal, with sea bass and ginger.
Initially we used traditional Bingo calls, such as ’59 – Brighton Line’, but moved on to our own variant, using Hymns from Singing the Faith, thus ‘59 – Lord the light of your love is shining‘ – with audience participation for the catchy ones.
Our talented Chair, Helen, was playing the part of Nurse, in a production of Romeo and Juliet, performed by the Banbury Cross Players at The Mill theater.
All the characters delivered a strong performance, and the well timed delivery and acting meant that the authentic Shakespearean language was not a barrier to following the action.
The strong bond between Juliet and her Nurse, and the complexity of their relationship was well played by both actors, and we were glad of the opportunity to see it.
Zumba is always popular, and what better way to liven things up when the nights are still cold and gloomy than with an energetic Zumba session with George Martini !
