The Buildwas Players would like to thank Harworth Group PLC for their award of a grant from the Harworth Community Fund which allowed us to construct new scenery panels and purchase new props and costumes (including a new dress for our dame!) which really enhanced the visual aspect of our production of Sleeping Beauty and will be used for our future productions.
