The Cramphorn Studio – Chelmsford

Following three years of absence and one pandemic, we finally made it back to the Cramphorn Studio in Chelmsford, albeit with an intimate audience as we are still not back to ‘normal’. Still it was great to see many of our friends again out and enjoying themselves. We made a few tweaks to some of the songs such as a slow beginning to ‘Brown Eyed Girl’ and Martin and Jo got the audience to count them into an a cappella start to ‘Tender’. Martin was pleased it was nearly Halloween as it meant he could buy a prop axe to ‘finish off’ Delilah! We had to be out of the theatre by 11.00pm, which meant we couldn’t mingle with the audience in the foyer. Ever resourceful, Dave devised the ‘Pack and Chat’ scheme whereby the audience could come up to us on stage and talk while we packed away. It could catch on!
