Entente Cordiale Gaillacoise - Appeal


Hi Val, Malcolm

Can you help please?
 I assume most of your readers know of the Gaillac based Anglo/British association and that it raises money for cancer research performed locally inToulouse.

Once again it’s the time of year when Entente Cordiale start talking about their main fund raising event held in February each year; and this year the theme is 100 years in Song.

 BUT WE HAVE A PROBLEM.
 Due to age, health and a number of other issues,  the English contingent of performers has become almost non-existent and we are appealing for some new blood to come forward.
The commitment is a few rehearsals over the winter months and then to perform on the night (Saturday 3rd February, Salle des Fetes, Gaillac).

Mostly the performers either sing to professional backing tracks: or if a band (even better), then whatever they play of course. All sound and lighting is professional as you would expect for a building controlled by the local Mairie.
If you could pass the word out and in the first instance have anyone interested call me on 05 63 70 93 62,  we would be very grateful.
Let me also say that anyone who has a talent we are interested in talking to.
Kind regards
Martin Pittaway
On behalf of
Entente Cordiale Gaillacoise.
