Midsummer Fun for South Brent

A week of fun events for all the family!

SBADS worked with people and groups from across the village to celebrate our 100th year with the whole of South Brent. Everyone was welcome to come along to any or all of the events.

What’s this all about?

South Brent Amateur Dramatic Society worked with people and groups from across the village to bring you these events as a small ‘thank you’ to South Brent for supporting us since 1925. We’re proud to be part of this vibrant community, and hope to entertain you for another 100 years.

For more information, please e-mail funweek@sbads.show

All events are subject to change and outdoor events are dependent on weather. We’ll post updates here and on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/southbrentamateurdramaticsociety)
