THE ARTS IN WINSHAM

Winsham Players

 

Nostalgia Night at the Jubilee Hall

A date for your diary – Friday 1st March at 7pm. We will be showing films of several productions put on in the village a few years ago, including Sherlock Holmes in  Winsham – the Musical – from 2012, also an excerpt from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Chaucer’s Pardoners Tale.

The show will start at 7pm, soft drinks will be available, but please bring your own alcoholic beverages. There will be no charge for admission, but to control numbers free tickets will be available from the Shop.

We hope that younger members of our community might be inspired to revive old traditions and contemplate putting on a show for the autumn or maybe just before next Christmas

The people of Winsham have a long tradition of supporting and participating in many art forms.  The Winsham Coronation Band  ( and before that the Winsham Drum and Fife Band-dating back to the 1850s) performed for over 100 years, until it  eventually 'ran out of puff' in 2010. Plays and pantomimes written and performed by people living in the parish continue to delight audiences that pack the Jubilee Hall. Winsham Art Club has been active for nearly sixty years, presenting its work at its Annual Exhibition in the autumn of every year.
More recently, under the active leadership, initially, of Carla Sheills and, more recently, with the addition of Eli Hodgson, emphasis has been given to 'Music and Movement', linking music to the physical benefits of exercise for all age groups.
There are also Music, Poetry and Acting and Play Reading Groups that have active support.
Keeping track of all these activities can be difficult. The intention of this web page is to provide easy access to information about all these groups.
