Laura teamed up with chairman Neil Tranmer to direct the show, with music being handled by Jonathan Chalker, and chorus choreography by Jess Whitaker while the dancers were provided by Lynn McCheyne.
Honorary president Hazel Hodder started the society with Cinderella, in which Neil Tranmer played Buttons. Next year the group will go back to its roots with a production of Cinderella, which will be performed at Burnley Mechanics from January 13th to 15th and 19th to 22nd.
Martin Chadwick and Kayleigh Hindle will pair up for what promises to be a magical show.
