THE YEOMEN OF THE GUARD
Severnside Theatre Ensemble's most ambitious undertaking to date
took place on Saturday June 24th, 2006. The Gaiety Theatre &
Opera House, Douglas, Isle of Man, is probably the finest Victorian
theatre in the British Isles. STE, under Music Director Ian
Pattison, presented a special one-night only Charity Gala
Performance of The Yeomen of the Guard in aid of
Hospice Care, the Isle of Man's leading charity. Click

the cut songs 'When jealous torments' and 'A laughing boy but
yesterday' in the performing editions by
Bruce I. Miller.

A HUGE MANX THANX!!
Hello to everyone who took part in "Yeomen
I.O.M." I can now tell you all that the total amount that
we raised for Hospice Care stands at a
FANTASTIC £1558.24
I can't thank you enough for all your support
for what I'm sure you will all agree was a thoroughly enjoyable
weekend. For me, arrangements and concert aside, I am so glad
that everyone had a really good time and got to see a little
of this magnificent island.
Speaking on behalf of the Hospice, I can't emphasize
enough how important everyone's contributions are to provide
and maintain the service. A huge thanks to all.
Very best wishes & sincere thanks to everyone
for making this all possible,
Ursula Colville x
