A small town which distrusts outsiders and is paranoid about its young people getting into trouble. Sounds familiar? But this is mid-west America a hundred years ago. River City, lowa, is just ripe to be conned by a travelling salesman who convinces the townspeople he can form a band to keep youngsters on the straight and narrow. Then he will flog them all the instruments and uniforms - and scarper with the cash. He's done it before, lots of times and in many towns. Only this time he falls for Marian the librarian...

8:30 PM - MOUSSU T E LEI JOVENTS
Part of Norfolk Black History Month
Featuring lead singer Tatou, guitarist/banjo player Blu, drummer Zerbino and Brazilian percussionist Jamilso. The group takes its inspiration from Marseille in the thirties, a veritable musical melting pot, where Provençal songs could be heard alongside local operettas by Vincent Scotto or the black music bursting onto the scene at the time. This provides the background for their songs, sea and harbour shanties that reek of the briny air, shipyard cranes and rocky inlets. A new repertoire to match the coastline of this part of the world, from Marseille or La Ciotat, a true blend of old and new, local and universal, full of nostalgia and foot-tapping rhythms.

Also BURPS, the panto group from Balsham will be singing beautiful Christmas Carols as you enter the village hall.
The village hall will be full of exhibitors including some Preschool run tables such as our infamous chocolate fountain and guess the number of sweets in the tin; homemade produce made by parents such as cakes, tray bakes .chutneys, preserves and jams; a monstrous Tombola and a raffle in which parents and traders have kindly donated goodies towards . Virgin Vie, Phoenix Trading, Forever Living, 5th Avenue Collections, JazzyJuniors and various handmade crafts supplied by local people such as jewellery, woolly hats and scarves, cushions and candles, soap and beauty products and many more will also be taking part.
So come and join us for a good fun, filled family afternoon gathering.
