2019 Something For Everyone Quiz Night

Our 2019 Quiz night was a great success.  Huge thanks to all those who braved a very dark and stormy night to come along, sit under the bright lights of the stage and support Play In A Week.  Particular thanks to those to helped out on the bar, serving food, co-comparing and scoring, and to Justin who arrived super early to let us in and set up all the tech, and then stayed to the bitter end of the clearing up!

We had lots of laughs and fun answering an ecclectic mix of questions, including sensory challenges and even a couple of questions asked using Makaton signing.  Lots of people went home with prizes of one sort or another and everyone seemed to enjoy the hearty supper.

We are delighted to say that after costs we raised just over £600 which will go towards this summer’s production costs.

Thank you everyone!

2018 Something For Everyone Quiz Night

A big thank you to everyone who came along to our 2018 Quiznight!

We had a full stage of visitors, some brand new to the theatre, fighting for the honour of becoming our 2018 champions. We had lots of laughs, fun & games, delicious food, tempting desserts, and lots of head scratching moments during the evening.

I’m sure everyone will be delighted to hear that after costs we raised around £850 which will go towards making this years Play In A Week very special indeed!

Thank you everyone!

2017 Something For Everyone Quiz Night

With rounds titled “What’s in the box?”, “Observation”, and “Sounds and music”, the enthusiastic crowd gathered around the packed tables in the Nomad Theatre were humorously challenged by the return of the truly inclusive, “Something for Everyone”, quiz night.

Knowledge of Play In A Week was an advantage to many of our participants and volunteer helpers, but a great time was had by all.

Special thanks must go to a local BUPA Care home for generously providing a lovely selection of deserts.

Our thanks again to everyone who came along and supported this fun event, who bought a raffle ticket or two and also donated raffle prizes.

We hope you enjoyed a thoroughly good evening and we look forward to seeing you at the next event.

2016 Something For Everyone Quiz Night

A warm and enthusiastic crowd gathered around 10 packed tables on the Nomad Theatre stage for the 2016 quiz night, and included a good number of people who were newcomers to the theatre.

“The Arnolds” had written and delivered a truly inclusive quiz, which provided “Something for Everyone”. As well as general knowledge, observation and whacky numbers rounds, sensory rounds required teams to use touch and feel to identify objects in boxes, and keen listening was required to recognise noises made by everyday objects. Knowledge of Play In A Week was an advantage to many of our participants and volunteer helpers, and a great time was had by all.

Special thanks must go to Richard from ‘Arty Tarty Foods’ for giving up his time to come and cook a fresh hot meal for everyone. Thanks also to a local  BUPA Care home for generously providing a lovely selection of deserts, and also to the ‘Company of Cooks’ for donating all the bread and salads.

Numbers are still being finalised, but we look to have raised a good £800+ for Play In A Week from this event, and the bar takings were very high too, helping to boost the Green Room’s coffers as well as the volume of noise and heckling during the second half!

Our thanks again to everyone who came along and supported this fun event, who bought a raffle ticket or two and also donated raffle prizes.

We hope you enjoyed a thoroughly good evening and we look forward to seeing you at the next event.

Many thanks to Sue Lee, Gavin Sadler, and others for these photos from this fun evening.
