* POSTPONED * The Vicar of Dibley (2025)

------ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Performance Postponed until April 2026 ------
We are very sorry to announce the postponement of this year's spring play "The Vicar of Dibley". This is due to the unfortunate event of a main cast member recently sustaining a serious injury while out walking.

We will now be performing this exceedingly funny play, based on the iconic TV sitcom, in April 2026. We hope you will book tickets for the new dates when they become available! In the mean time, we still have other events to attend, such as;

- 1st March 2025 - Race Night fundraiser for Lazonby Pool
- 25th August 2025 - Lazonby Car Boot Sale (August Bank Holiday)
- 2025 Christmas Panto - Rapunzel (Kick-off meeting in June. Auditions in July. Performance December.)
- More EVP and EVP Juniors events in the pipeline!

Kind Regards,
EVP.
