Cllr Chris Lloyd, Lead Member for Leisure, said: “I saw the show myself on Friday 13 December, bringing my wife and 5-year-old grandson with me for his first show at Watersmeet. We thoroughly enjoyed the performance; dancing, singing and laughing throughout. The song choices this year were particularly good with modern music that we all knew. Everyone should see this show!”
