Supporters' Lunch

Good food, convivial company, excellent entertainment and friendly service - what more could one ask for?


All these and more at the recent Supporters' lunch held in the theatre foyer. As we settled in, a glass of Giesen’s finest in hand, our Chief Executive Barbara told us of her journey culminating in her appointment to The Court and then some of her thoughts for the future.

Frank, thoughtful and at times most amusing, we came to appreciate more of the person behind the position and how fortunate we are to have her leading the team.

Our new Artistic Director, Dan Pengelly, was also introduced and provided some guidelines as to our immediate post-covid future. Dan’s return to The Court has been very well received and there is no doubt that our programme will be wisely and creatively managed under his leadership.



Then the Jesters took centre stage; Kathleen, Andrew and Jack with a little help from some selected audience members, all providing much amusement.


Many thanks to Rod and his offsider providing their typically delicious pizzas and chips and to members of the Court staff revealing their skills in table service and dessert-making. All in all a great occasion - when’s the next?
