Singing along to Evita at the Tyne Theatre

Our residents enjoyed a thrilling trip to the Tyne theatre last week to see a wonderful performance of the Evita musical by the West End Operatic Society.

They were captivated by the music, costumes, and the story and loved the iconic songs (especially “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina”) plus the dazzling costumes and sets. Some of our residents commented that it brought back memories of seeing a show at the West End in London.

Margaret said “it’s a lovely, traditional theatre and our seats were very comfortable. I enjoyed the show very much.”

Colin added “What a fabulous day! I enjoyed the glass of wine especially and thank you to everyone.” Muriel added “I loved the music”, whilst Ernie said “I loved the part of the show with the military men in it. It reminded me of when I was in the army.”

Berenice Groves, Chair of our Trustees said “I was delighted to accompany our residents – outings like these are an important way to enrich their lives. It was a joy to see the smiles on everyone’s faces throughout the performance. Thank you to our sponsors Cynthia and Paul Davison for generously funding our trip, plus the staff team, volunteers and the bus drivers who made sure we arrived safely!”
