Dear Blogger

News update from LADS, Llanymynech Amateur Dramatic Society

Performances Postponed We're really sorry, but a sequence of disasters has meant that we are postponing our production of 'Daisy Pulls It Off' until all of our cast members are available and fit to play. Rescheduled performance dates to be published shortly. Chin up, chums! We'll pull through! And we can't wait to share this thoroughly ripping yarn with you all! If you have already purchased tickets, you will be contacted to see whether you wish to transfer to the new dates or receive a refund.
