PHOENIX VARIETY SHOWGROUP
youtu.be/Y9H0DtghQlE Our showreel
youtu.be/XZ3CecqaVs4 Phoenix 1st ever performance 1st June 2018
Town Of Hartlepool are pleased to announce that our Phoenix Variety Showgroup have now finished their DVD of Live performances.
The first batch of DVDs will be distributed to our towns Care Homes by Hartlepool Borough Council. We thank Shane Moore for his help with this.
The DVD is free to Care Homes in the hope that it helps residents and staff to raise spirits. The DVD lasts for 64 minutes.
We unfortunately had to stop entertaining early 2020 as our shows were cancelled due to the epidemic and restraints.
The DVD will be on general sale shortly as we await the printers to complete the covers.
Details of the charity we are supporting will be announced shortly as all profits gained from the sales will be forwarded to the chosen charity or fund raiser.
Thank you everyone hope we see you in the near future.
For a view of Phoenix please take this link, it’s nothing like the finished DVD though.

Carol Newman I would like to share my Gran’s memories of the Bombardment. She was Lily Chappell and was 16 when the Bombardment happened - the trauma of the day stayed with her for the rest of her life. Her family lived in Albany Street. She wrote this short piece when she was in her eighties and I think she just had to get what she remembered down on paper. It looks like she knew some of those who sadly lost their lives that day, mentioning Alfie Claude and the Cornforth girls.
