I WAS a guest at the first social evening held by Rossendale Amateur Players in their new home, the former Bethel Baptist Church in Waterfoot.

What a pleasant evening, with entertainment by people of the Valley with many talents shared so freely.

The work done in this old church is remarkable. Hopefully, the Rossendale Players will be happy there. Everyone present on this evening clearly was.

Thank you for providing Waterfoot with a theatre, Rossendale Players and Friends of the Players.
