A spectacular stage show to celebrate the life and talent of choreographer Sarah Marshall at the Town Hall last Saturday night raised over £2,500 for Nightingale House Hospice.
Performers from Llangollen Operatic Society, their junior section the Young 'Uns and Llangollen Pantomime Group, assisted by the Julie Thomas dancers, presented a lavish programme of entertainment marking Sarah's skill in choreographing a cavalcade of their productions in the years before her untimely death 12 months ago.
And the resulting concert, "Something for Sarah", was rewarded with a full-house audience who lapped up every minute of the the programme of song and dance, which included brief tastes of previous musicals and pantos plus a fun quiz and a prize raffle which brought the house down.
The show's producer Tracey Kempster-Jones, has now revealed on Facebook that the smash-hit production also resulted in a boost of £2,515.42 for the hospice where Sarah was cared for in her final days.
In her post, Tracey says: "You ALL made this happen. Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart and to all those who gave their time freely and free of charge.
"You are most generous - feeling overwhelmed."
