It's AGM Time again

It’s AGM Time again, please do come along to The Pallant Centre, The Pallant, Havant to support and hear a review of the past year and upcoming plans for the group.

Monday 30th April 7pm 2018

As you know, Havant Dynamo Youth Theatre has been successfully run by volunteers, usually parents of members and ex-members. However we still need help with all aspects of the group both behind the scenes and during show productions.

Perhaps you can join the Dynamo committee? become a Trustee or offer help with any aspect of the group from show production & fund raising to publicity & construction.

Importantly, this year we have 2 posts to fill on the committee for Secretary and Vice Chair, so hopefully you will be interested or know of someone to fill these important roles: These are very important roles to fill so that the Theatre group can continue to provide such an excellent experience for the children that pass through its doors. Please consider if you would be willing to offer your services.

Please do not be afraid to come forward speak to either Mo Whiting, Tony Goodbody, or our chairman Richard Watts.

See you on the 30th!

Theatre group ready for Joseph and his Dreamcoat

LAST-MINUTE preparations are being made for a youth theatre’s production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.

While everyone else was enjoying Christmas festivities, the 50-strong members of Havant Dynamo Youth Theatre (HDYT) were busy rehearsing for the performance, which begins tomorrow night at St Faith’s Church Hall, in Havant.

Pauline West, who is supporting HDTY, said: ‘The members thrive on being involved in this shared experience and rise to the various challenges of blocking and setting the large cast on stage through discussion and suggestions between themselves.

 ‘While rehearsals are in full swing, the stage is transformed by a nucleus of volunteer helpers consisting of the parents and families of current and ex-members of the company.

‘Instead of enjoying a relaxing seasonal break, this small group of supporters has extended the stage and constructed the tiered seating.

‘They have made costumes and installed the lighting and sound equipment, have painted and designed the set and made or sourced props.

‘The sounds of hammers and drills are interspersed with snippets of dialogue or the wonderful harmonies of the cast as they ring out in the large hall.’

At the hub of the group is artistic director Andrew Bowker a retired teacher.

 He has led HDYT, with the help of the committee, for 37 years.

Pauline added: ‘Andrew has created a company where the young people are expected to take on more responsibility as they progress and gain experience in all aspects of theatre.

‘HDYT is not a performing arts school but a place where the members gain skills through collaborative working that give them confidence to carry with them for life.’
