Mad About Musicals

7/12/25

 

Theatre4all. is a local community musical theatre group that aims to give back to the community by raising funds for local charities with every performance they hold. An inclusive group based in Neston Cheshire is open to all.

It’s a bright but cold Sunday afternoon, parents, grandparents, siblings are gathered in Neston Town Hall for an annual concert, this year its Mad About Musicals; aren’t we all!

Musical Director Nicki Ruscoe introduces the mixed gender and age group choir assembled on the stage. A ‘Winter Wonderland ‘opens the show.

Younsters Betsy, Morgan, Orlando, Ruby & Jess steps forward, so cute, ‘Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer’. We had solo, ‘Scarlet Ribbons’ from Kathy. One of the youngest members of the choir Betsy ‘We Three King’s, supported by the full choir. We go from the youngest to the matriarch Yvonne’s solo Coventry Carol.

We finish the first half with the kids once more, Jingle Bells. An absolute delight.

The audience is treated to coffee & biscuits. I love coming to Theatre4ll productions, it is such a warm & Friendly atmosphere, community theatre at its best.

‘Rocking around the Christmas Tree’ & ‘Let it Snow’ received a rapturous applause, followed by young Morgan ‘Sparke & Shine’. One of my favourite songs came next sung beautifully by Jennifer supported by full company ‘Do you Hear what I Hear’. The songs came in quick succession, ‘Getting in the Mood for Christmas’ ‘It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year'  finishing with ‘I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day’  Zoe & Chorus.

Theatre4All is an inclusive community amateur group, they do wonderful work supporting local charities. They need all the help they can muster; we are lucky to have them in our district. I am looking forward to their Panto Snow White, one of my favourites.
