Brentwood Arts Festival - An 80th anniversary tribute to the end of World War II - 11 July
The Marlborough are pleased to announce that we will be taking part in the Brentwood Arts Council's Arts Festival this summer, with our show "An 80th anniversary tribute to the end of World War II".
The Arts Festival is running from 28 June to 12 July 2025, and there are a wide range of events happening in and around the borough.
As part of this, the Marlborough have decided to hold a tribute evening on 11 July at 7pm. Our theme is 'Wartime memories' celebrating 80 years since the end of World War II. In 'cabaret' style, the evening will feature a range of acts, with playlets, poetry and readings of letters from service people, music and singing, personal war memories, and Churchill speech recreations.
The ticket price - £15 for all attendees be they a member or not, will include wine and nibbles.
We will be back at our usual home of Brentwood School Memorial Hall, CM15 8EE

Janet Cass Memorial Cup
Last year we inaugurated the Janet Cass Memorial Cup (click here for the review article) which is awarded annually to any Club member who has provided outstanding service to the Club over the previous year. The first recipient was a very pleased Juliette Bird, who was awarded the cup by Janet’s son, Philip, who attended the Cup launch at our 2024 Afternoon Tea. This year, we would like to ask you as Club members to let us know who you would like to nominate to win the cup in 2025. The person with the most nominations will be presented with the Cup at the Afternoon Tea event on 28 August (see above). Please email or call the secretary with your nominations by 30 July.
