Announcement from Alan
After 3 years as Chairman, I've taken the decision to stand down at the AGM in October. I've had a wonderful time as Chairman, and hope that my tenure is seen as a time when Cygnets has made a lot of progress. But it's time for new leadership to continue to enable the company to go from strength to strength. There will be an open election for a new Chairman at the AGM, and nominations will be sought along with those for the rest of the committee at the beginning of September. But I already know of one candidate who is a long-standing and dedicated member of the company and committee, and I have every confidence not only in them, but in the other members of the committee who work so hard to help make Cygnets what it is. I will really miss it but know it will be in very safe hands, and look forward to being an active member and a Swan.
Tuesday 5th October 2010
This year, we're holding our AGM on Tuesday 5th October. And to make it a bit more social (in true Cygnets style), we're making it into a cheese and wine evening too. So, come along and support your society, and find out what's been happening with Cygnets over the last year, plus enjoy a selection of cheeses and wine, whilst catching up with your friends.
The AGM bit should only last the first hour, so we thought what better way to finish the evening than by getting everyone in the mood for our next show, The Wedding Singer, by watching the classic film of the show, starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. So, you get two nights in one!
We know the AGM isn't the most exciting event on the social calendar for Cygnets, but it's really important that our members are represented, so please do come along and represent your society. It's your chance to ask any questions you have of the committee, and also put yourself forward to help run the society if you so wish (and to eat cheese and drink wine...!).
If you are thinking about joining the committee and want any more information about what it involves, please feel free to have a chat to anyone currently involved (list of all committee members on the Committee page) or email us.
Congratulations!
Congratulations are in order to the ensemble of Cygnet Players September 2009 production of Jekyll and Hyde, nominated for a 'Best Chorus' in the regional NODA awards.
Congraulations also to Philip Doyle, who was nominated for the NODA award, best male character. He played the role of Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde in Cygnet Players September 2009 production of Jekyll and Hyde - a fantastic accomplishment!
Well done to all involved!
