Outstanding Performance of 'The Pied Piper of Hamlin' by Caldy Grammar School! 👏🎭
📣 A huge shout-out to Caldy Grammar School for their amazing performance of “The Pied Piper of Hamlin” – a fantastic pantomime at The Floral Pavilion!
📣 The staff at the venue were incredibly accommodating, especially since some of us arrived early – thank you for that!
📣 THE PANTOMIME WAS INCREDIBLE! The acting, singing, dancing, stage management, sound, and overall entertainment were all superb. We loved every moment of it! Well done, Caldy – you should be so proud! 👏👏👏
