Final preparations are underway for the Mayor of Shrewsbury’s Fizz & Canapés evening in The Dingle taking place on Friday 19th September, with members of Shropshire Youth Theatre completing weekly rehearsals ahead of a live performance in The Dingle later this month. 

The event aims to raise vital funds for the Mayor’s chosen charities: Shrewsbury Street Pastors and West Mercia Search & Rescue. Tickets are priced at £15 per person, with all proceeds supporting the invaluable work these organisations provide in keeping the community safe and supported.

Set against the stunning floral backdrop of The Dingle, the evening will feature a unique performance as Shropshire Youth Theatre present their interpretation of Alice in Wonderland, a novel written by Lewis Carroll in 1865.

Lisa Morris of Shropshire Youth Theatre said:
“Shropshire Youth Theatre are committed to promoting youth arts engagement by supporting local causes. Opportunities like The Mayor's Charity Event enable us to work in a fantastic non-traditional performance setting, while allowing our members to develop their performance skills.
We are really excited to be supporting The Mayor's Charity Fund for a second year and can't wait to bring our own interpretation of Alice in Wonderland to The Dingle in September.”

The Mayor of Shrewsbury, Councillor Alex Wagner added:
“I am thrilled to be hosting this event in such a beautiful setting. The young performers have been busy rehearsing in the Quarry and their energy and talent will bring something very special to the evening. I warmly encourage as many people as possible to join us for what promises to be a memorable night in support of two incredible causes.”
