Weymouth Rotary WOWS local charity on its 40th anniversary

Budding young stage performers can take to the stage of Weymouth Pavilion this November with a smile, after the local Weymouth Rotary club were able to provide a £500 donation to production costs.

WOW Youth Musical Theatre is a youth-focused charity that develops the confidence,teamwork and talent of 10-18 year olds, performing high quality, award-winning musical theatre – and is set to celebrate its fortieth anniversary with a run of performances next month, featuring numbers from many of the shows performed by members over the years.

In turn, WOW raises hundreds of pounds for charities through bucket collections at their performances.

The donation was received by WOW’s Chairman, Alan McKechan earlier this month. He thanked The Rotary Club for “their most welcome and continued support”.
