Many thanks to the Three Inch Fools for our final theatre show of the year; a well delivered version of Robin Hood.
It was Boxtree production’s 4th visit to Cromer, and the audience has grown every year. A great performance of Alice in Wonderland,

The Friends have been talking to NNDC for sometime about making the best community use of the former tennis courts/hardstanding, and last month submitted a nine-page proposal to improve this last major derelict area of the park to bring it back into community use.
A multi-purpose shared space could combine multi-use areas and economic activities, and might for example include a horticultural hub, with a plant growing (and selling) area; pop-up/artisan market area; general leisure activities (eg ice skating); and repurposing the old bandstand, as a community facility and possible performance space.
We are also keen to explore options for developing new public lavatory facilities as well as incorporate some play elements into the area.
We will be working with Cromer Town Council to further develop a proposal, and are interested in hearing from community groups, individuals and businesses who would like to join us.
