Regal Trust Report May 2014
Luckily the only complaint has been that we were programming so much great content some people feel compelled to visit us several times some weeks.
One lady said that she has seen more great entertainment and has been able to participate in more cultural events, in the last two years than she has been able to in the last 70 years, and all this in rural Worcestershire. She previously lived near London!
Last night we staged Morecambe, this is the first time the Regal has been included as a venue on a major national tour. The trust invested in additional stage equipment to make this show possible. The show was simply brilliant.
Tonight is also a significant night in the history of the Regal, with the first digitally downloaded film being screened. Whilst we have had the equipment to accept films this way for a number of months, this is the first film to arrive by the method.
This coming weekend we host a volunteers fair where the people of Tenbury & the surrounding area will be encouraged to volunteer for 20+ local organisations. We are also encouraging school leavers to come and join us in running the Regal during the school holidays.
This month we also welcome back the reenactors from Severn Valley Railway, who will be arriving in their historic coach to see a classic film from the 1940’s. We also welcome the staff, pupils and parents from Tenbury High School as they celebrate their achievements.
Fusion Dance & Cheer will be staging their showcase at the Regal, and we are delighted that their principal and head cheer coach has agreed to be the Choreographer for our pantomime, and will also be holding dance & cheer training at the Regal after the summer holidays.
The Regal is now often operational 7 days a week, with a mixture of advertised and private events, sometimes with more than one show or event each day.

Regal Trust Report March 2014
This year’s Oscar season was not as strong as last years, so we saw a year on year reduction in the number of tickets sold in March, but sales were bolstered by our participation in the Borderlines Film Festival.
The Mayor’s Show was a notable success and featured some unusual but very successful and well received acts. The March programme also included a sell out performance by Roy Chubby Brown, which introduced a new audience to the Regal.
We received our first tourist coach party with a large group from Ledbury WEA.
The group enjoyed a cream tea, a tour and visit to the museum, a talk on Art Deco and it’s influence on Hollywood and one about the Regal, followed by a screening of the Art Deco styled film, Top Hat.
The work by the building contractors to remedy the plaster problems has now been completed as has the work repairing the doors and lobby floor in the community centre. The repairs to the front doors are still outstanding.
The Regal Trust has now employed an Assistant Manager, through the apprentice scheme in conjunction with Hereford College. Whilst the Regal remains a predominantly volunteer run organisation, it now employs 4 local people part-time in key area’s of the operation.
Looking forward; we are in the process of planning a Pro-Am Pantomime for the Christmas Season. We have selected Aladdin, with a script by the leading Pantomime Script writer, Ben Crocker.
Open auditions will be held in town in the next few months. Hopefully the majority of the main characters and ensemble will be found locally, but we have the option to hire professional players to fill any gaps.
Ben will also be involved in the auditions and will hold a Panto Master Class for those selected. The main rehearsals will be handled by a local director, with Ben returning a few weeks before the performance to add the final polish.
The set and costumes will be professionally produced, and the final product will be a high quality and enjoyable pantomime for the whole family.
