Organised and led by the amazing Bill Tamblyn, guests from Quire and Breton singer, Gwendal Moële, accompanied by Paul Riley on guitar, wowed the audience with a repertoire of French and French-inspired music and songs. The programme was interspersed with French poetry and some French rounds for audience participation, and it didn’t seem to matter whether you had a good knowledge of French or not, everyone joined in the fun.
At the interval, a selection of French cheeses and wine were served, before the evening proceeded with a number of solo pieces, each exquisitely performed, by members of the Peldon Players. As a finale, a medley of numbers from Les Misérables was performed by the ensemble, with chorus from the audience. To end this glorious evening, everyone stood up to sing, with great gusto, La Marseillaise.
