THE EVEN GREATER CHERITON VARIETY SHOW 22 to 25 March 2017 raised more than £2,000 for the Cheriton Village Hall Fundraising Campaign!
From the Cheriton Players Website..................
A fund raiser for the Cheriton Village Hall, and back by popular demand, The Cheriton Players and the Cheriton Village Hall committee presented the Even Greater Cheriton Variety Show to packed houses over four nights in March 2017.
Even as Kevin Gover was writing the words “…ever so slightly bonkers…” about the first Great Cheriton Variety Show, the wheels were already in motion to provide something that ripped bonkers away from its creature comforts to give it a taste of its own medicine. So a table format, with licensed bar and a light supper helped prepare our audiences for an evening of Cheriton style entertainment.
There were songs, laughter, sketches and audience participation galore. Included in our line-up was a ‘cinematic’ melodrama, acted out in true silent movie style, then reversed and even speeded up. The Echo reviewer said there were some ‘stand out moments’ and included in these the title duet by young Sophie Jarrett and Toby Cooper from Phantom of The Opera, stage so successfully at Perins School in the summer of 2016, and Ali Carter singing ‘Summertime’ from Porgy & Bess.
For a full list of acts and cast/crew, have a look at our online version of the programme.
For reviews, see online at The Daily Echo and Winchester Today.

2011 Centenary Celebrations
October 29th 2011
from the Hampshire Chronicle 3 November:
SATURDAY 29th October 2011
From the Hampshire Chronicle 3rd November 2011
VILLAGERS started bonfire night early this year to celebrate the centenary of their village hall.
Hundreds turned out in Cheriton to enjoy a bonfire and fireworks display to mark 100 years of the popular village hall.
A torch-lit procession led the villagers into nearby Goodens field where a large bonfire was built and the display lit up the night sky.
Residents came from nearby villages such as Kilmeston and Tichborne to join in the fun, as the hall serves a wide range of needs for the community, from amateur dramatics to yoga classes.
Children from Cheriton Primary School also took part in the celebrations with a spooky Hallowe’en costume competition, won by five-year-old Jack Boissier for his pirate outfit.
Will Beardmore-Gray, chairman of the village hall committee, said the village wanted to put on an event deserving of the special occasion.
He said: “We thought that we needed to mark the anniversary with an event for the whole community, and what we have looked to do is to organise an event really focused on Cheriton and the local villages like Bramdean, Tichborne and Kilmeston.”
Local residents praised the event and congratulated the organisers.
Jane Farrer, 42, of Cheriton, said: “The organisation tonight was brilliant. This is the first time in the 13 years I have lived here that we have done something like this and it was a great idea.”
Roy Worth, who has lived in the village for 20 years and serves on the parish council, added: “We are very proud of the village hall and it is being celebrated by almost the whole village in wonderful fashion with a magnificent fireworks display.
“People living here participate with such energy.”
l Costume competition winners: Seven -11 Category: 1st: Connie Butt, aged eight; 2nd: Poppy Painter, eight; 3rd: Juliet Wolf, eight.
Under-sevens: 1st (and overall winner): Jack Boissier, five; 2nd: Evie Byford, six; 3rd: Grace Whitfield, four.
