CHAIRS CHAT

I'm writing this as a very proud Chair of CUDOS, following our fantastic success at the David Beach Awards. Sending huge congratulations to all our many nominees & to our award winners, the full cast & backstage crew, alongside the team who brought us all together & turned Made in Dagenham into the amazing show it was. Also thank you to all of you who were in our audience, what a difference you made to us at each performance. As a group we are so lucky with the great mix of members we have, you are all a key part of everything we do, shows we put on & can all enjoy as we move forward. I'm looking forward to auditions for our next show, Lend Me A Tenor, a very funny play which I'm sure you'll enjoy. I know we have exciting times & opportunities ahead of us & am looking forward to another exciting year as we hold our AGM at the end of this month. This will give us the chance to review the past year, to celebrate all our productions & to reflect on all we've been able to do together.

I will be announcing some very special news at our AGM which I know you'll be delighted to hear. Thank you for all your support & hard work over the last year. Look forward to catching up with lots of you at our AGM. Dendy xx
