Musical society to host virtual ladies day
A year ago the club were just about to perform a run of Hairspray in Lanark Memorial Hall, when lockdown was announced on the evening of the dress rehearsal and the show was cancelled.
The autumn show was also cancelled and now it’s uncertain as to when the club will be able to perform again.

The members also kept in touch and kept their brains working with regular themed quiz nights, sporting many fantastic costumes.
At Christmas, the club ran a fundraising Secret Santa for members, which in turn raised £140 for Alzheimer Scotland which had been Hairspray’s charity partner.
Many club members took part in a local #BakeOff Fundraiser which raised £400 for The Brain Tumour Charity, and participated in a virtual Murder Mystery evening which will raise £80 for Macmillan Cancer Support.
