On 26th November the Royal Hippodrome Theatre played host a Charity Gala of their Christmas Variety Show.
Hundreds of people took up the offer of free tickets in exchange for donating something at the end of the show. Nearly £900 was raised for the chosen charities of the evening, namely “Starlight” and the Theatre Renovation Fund.
A theatre spokesman said, “An enjoyable evening appeared to be had by all and it was in aid of such a good cause. As a community theatre, we enjoy being able to offer the community the opportunity of coming to see a show at the theatre. It is the third time we have done it and I am sure there will be many more opportunities. We would like to thank all those who donated so generously.”
“The RHT Christmas Variety Show” is a fun filled extravaganza that is guaranteed to entertain the whole family this Christmas. The show has fabulous costumes, great songs and dances as well dancing pantomime cows, dancing penguins and many festive corny gags galore! A great additional treat this Christmas!
The show runs from 19th – 27th December at various times with tickets priced from just £8. Call 01323 80 20 20 or purchase online at www.royalhippodrome.com
