Dundas County Players to hold a costume sale

25

The Dundas County Players (DCP) are cleaning house and invite people to check out what’s on offer at the Old Town Hall in Winchester from 10 am to 4 pm on October 26.

“Over the years, our wardrobe has grown in size, filling our costume room to capacity, “ explains Lynn Jolicoeur, DCP’ president. “It’s time to de-clutter and reorganize the space and make it easier to know what we have and find what we need.”

People are invited to check out a variety of women’s and men’s clothing, shoes, belts, hats, and wigs. There will also be a number of special, fanciful items from previous Christmas pantomimes, such as costumes for court jesters, witches, princesses, knights, sultans and castle guards. It is, however, important to note, that there are no costumes or clothing for small children.

“This is our first costume sale,” added Jolicoeur, “It will be on a small scale and cash only. If it works out, we plan to do it again next year.”

The Dundas County Players Theatre Society is a community volunteer organisation that promotes theatre arts in Dundas County. For the past 28 years, Dundas County Players has been providing quality entertainment including plays, children’s summer workshops, and cabarets.
