TRUSTEES of Frome Memorial Theatre will host a Quiz Night in the Assembly Rooms in aid of the theatre’s boiler appeal.
The trustees are trying to raise between £30,000 – £40,000 to replace two of the theatre’s four boilers which stopped working last year.
Chairman of trustees Humphrey Barnes said, “We announced in November that we have a major problem with our heating system for the theatre and the Assembly Rooms, the winter (so far) has been kind to us, the mildest winter for some time.
“Two of our four boilers are working fine, and the heating throughout the complex has not been affected, however the trustees feel we must address the problem shortly.
“There have been many suggestions for fund raising that have been put forward from our patrons and volunteers, and the first suggestion that we are putting into action is to be a Quiz Night in the Assembly Rooms, to the rear of the theatre on Saturday February 27th commencing at 7.00pm. Tickets are available at the theatre box office at £10 per team of four. Contact the box office on 01373 462795.
“The licensed bar will be open and refreshments will be available to purchase. We hope that we can have your support, and we look forward to a ‘full house’ which is fast becoming normal these days at the theatre.”
