Sparkly Singers
2025-03-20 20:00 - 21:15, 2025-03-27 20:00 - 21:15 | Lansdowne Hall – Derry Hill
Alongside our sessions in Chippenham (Monday lunchtimes) and Royal Wootton Bassett (Tuesday evenings), the Sparkly Singers meet every Thursday evening from 8:00pm at the Lansdowne Hall in Derry Hill.
Founded with the simple aim of bringing the joy and benefits of group singing to everyone, our emphasis is on singing in a way that is, above all else, fun.
Rather than splitting into parts and learning harmonies, we prefer instead to sing in unison, infusing songs with our own rather unique mix of humour, movement and the occasional wacky prop.
So if you simply love to sing, but have yet to find the choir that perfectly complements your sense of fun, why not come along to one of our FREE taster sessions and see what we’re all about.

Chippenham Youth Theatre present: Goodnight Mister Tom
2025-04-01 18:00 - 20:00 | Neeld Community & Arts Centre, The Neeld, High Street, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN15 3ER, United Kingdom
In a heartwarming and poignant adaptation of Michelle Magorian’s beloved novel, Chippenham Youth Theatre brings Goodnight Mister Tom to life on stage. Set against the backdrop of World War II, this moving production tells the story of young William Beech, an evacuee from London, who is sent to the countryside to escape The Blitz. There, he finds an unexpected home with the reclusive but kind-hearted Tom Oakley. As their bond grows, William discovers friendship, love, and a sense of belonging he has never known before.
This special performance marks the 80th anniversary of VE Day, celebrating the resilience and courage of those who lived through the war. With a talented young cast, evocative staging, and a story that continues to resonate across generations, Goodnight Mister Tom is a powerful tribute to the enduring spirit of hope and kindness in times of adversity.
Please note – some scenes may be upsetting to young audiences. Recommended for ages 8+
Tickets: Standard £15.00 / Concessions £12.00
Please contact the venue for any access requirements.
Tickets are also available through our Box Office on 01249 446699, from the Neeld Box Office or at the Town Hall.
Tickets are non-refundable unless this event is cancelled or postponed.
