There are other ways to help
Rehearsals are held every Sunday afternoon at St Marks Church until the show.
There are many 'jobs' that need to be completed before the show but one of the most important one is 'making the tea!'
If you can volunteer just one Sunday afternoon to do this the team will 'love you forever'.
As with costumes parts of our scenery are also made by volunteers. If you are able to give up a couple hours on the occasional Saturday to help that would be very much appreciated too. You don't have to be fantastic at art but if you can hold a paintbrush and attempt to paint a straight line (don't worry this is not compulsory) please come and join us.
Becoming a matron is a very satisfying part of YG, you are there for the most important and exciting part of the year. You will need a DBS and a Matron’s License but YG will help acquire all of these items, if you enjoy the role you are allowed to use this license for other groups too.
The show is always the most important part of our year but it cannot happen if we do not have matrons, Each dressing room needs 1 or 2 matrons and when you have 100 cast members and 4 shows you can imagine this needs many volunteers.
YG pride themselves on their costumes and Diane has an endless task of making costumes for the show these seem to get more and more extravagant as the years go on, but help is always required and even if you are not Vivienne Westwood sewing buttons, pop studs and badges onto costumes is always helpful for Diane.
We always need new cast to join, so please the spread the word about us on local facebook groups and instagram, and let your friends , nieces and nephews know all about us!
