2015, March – Cyclone Pam Appeal:

In March 2015 we staged the popular Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, South Pacific. In the same month Cyclone Pam ripped through the South Pacific islands of Vanuatu leaving devastation in her wake. We decided to launch our own appeal in support of the victims of the damage caused by storms and flooding.

We would like to extend thanks to the audience of South Pacific.  During the week of the performance an amazing £400.00 was raised which has now been donated to the Oxfam Cyclone Pam appeal.
