The great news is that the Hornchurch passion Play 2020 will go ahead in 2022!

The countdown is running on our website and we need to proceed to preparations to re-start the project.

We shall be holding another “Big Meeting” on Sunday 17th October at 3pm until 5pm latest, in the North Street Halls Hornchurch, where our strategy for the months to come will be explained in detail. Essentially we intend to re-rehearse, building on the work done last year with the same cast, crew and support network where possible.

We also have plans for an informal social get together in the coming weeks so we can get together and enjoy some down time with each other. Details to follow….

Of course, it is with great sadness we note the passing of two valued members of our cast of “High Priests”, both of whom had been deeply committed to the project. Obviously the last year may also have brought about changes in your circumstances and we need to know if you are still able to commit to take part in 2022?

We would ask that you drop an e-mail to us (by simply replying to this email) confirming your continued involvement. We also invite you to attend the “Big Meeting” in October.

Rehearsals will begin with a read-through on the first Sunday of January and a revised rehearsal schedule will be published shortly.

I will continue as director with Simon’s assistance and Hannah remains Production Manager.

The committee very much look forward to getting the company together again and renewing the fellowship which is so central to our bringing to life the great story of Our Lord’s Passion for the people of Havering.

Looking forward to receiving your email and seeing you again!

God bless,
​
Kevin and the HPP committee
