A local community theatre is giving rave reviews to Jigsaw Foundation following the successful funding of more than £15,000.
As the curtain rolled on Hyde Little Theatre’s latest play ‘When We Were Married’, our team presented the cheque for £15,520 which will help fund the group’s weekly programme of community activities alongside the production of its plays.
The programme is open to everyone and offers people of all ages an introduction to activities such as dance, yoga and Pilates. Early learning story-telling sessions will also be available alongside an adult and children’s choir.
Gavin Chadwick, the Project Lead at Hyde Little Theatre said, “The grant funding will allow us to really step up plans this summer to provide members of the community with a chance to get creative in the various sessions to be offered.”
“It will be great to run these sessions around our youth theatre and rehearsals taking place for our summer play season. Our committee has recently been considering the social impact over the past couple of years and how we can give a contribution to the local community by providing these sessions, which are open to everyone. We are excited to launch our programme and look forward to welcoming new faces from the community very soon.”
The activities will start in February at the theatre’s studio on Market Street in Hyde.
