Tim will be celebrating 30 years with us this September, having previously been a member of the Wyberton Theatrical Society in Boston, Lincs. During his time there he acted, directed and was their quiz master.
Happily, he regularly holds quizzes for us as part of our Tuesday night schedule and sometimes at our Christmas parties. A few years ago Tim took on the role of compiling and sending out our newsletter Prompt. Most recently, we saw him on stage in Dial M for Murder where he faced the challenge of an enormous chunk of line learning!
Dame Tim, acting in Dial M for Murder and bringing sunshine with Morecombe.
My first experience of working with Tim was in Goody Two Shoes when he played the dame, and did so with great gusto, making us all laugh every performance. Several members have told me that they think Tim's most outstanding performance at WBDS was in Copenhagen.
Now retired, Tim shows no sign of slowing down where theatre is concerned. Hopefully we will continue to enjoy his performances for some time to come, and if enough people pester him, he may even consider directing in the future! Happy 30th anniversary Tim.
