Great donation from Madcaps

July 25, 2016 July 2016 No Comments

Great-donation-from-Madcaps2 MADCAPs is pleased to present a cheque for the Waihenga Centre of $7000.00. The initial pledge was $5000.00 and then last year we held our fundraiser “One Night Stand” a dinner and show that raised $2000.00 from the evening. We are looking forward to having the opportunity to hold our future shows in the Waihenga Centre Both Vicki and Steve are in costume for our coming show in September “Rock till you Drop, Time Travel the Musical Highway”.

The auditions have been held and practises are now underway for our 2016 show “Rock Till You Drop” that will be held at the Martinborough Hau Ariki Marae this year, we have a great cast so far and can not wait to perform it to the community in September.
Tickets will be going on sale later on in the year so keep an eye out for the posters once they go up around the town. You can like us on our MADCAPS Facebook page for the latest updates and photo’s from the show.
