Tickets are only £5, This evening will hopefully be the first of many “It’s Showtime” events at Wycombe Arts Centre as we do what we can to promote the staging of local productions and community groups. Proceeds will be used to support the Wycombe Arts Centre charity and supporting local groups where possible.
It’s Showtime was initially created by Mike Watson, former Chair of Wycombe Arts Centre, to promote his new musical Beat the System but its quickly become something really needed: a way for local community drama and musical groups to collaborate and promote themselves and their future productions. In this busy and challenging world its vital we spend more time together being creative and enjoying each other’s company. It’s better than being stuck in front of the TV! It’s Showtime will endeavor to put on regular events at the Arts Centre that celebrate and promote our wide range of singing, acting, dancing, music and technical talent in the area.
If you would like to help with the development of It’s Showtime at Wycombe Arts Centre please get in touch here or call Mike Watson on 07767 383914
