WHERE..... Ayia Thekla Amphitheatre.....WHEN.... Thursday July 13th 2017 at 6pm.
Jess Cook and friends George Zoumenis, Georgina Dobson and others will be providing music and popular songs to picnic to.
Many of you will have heard Jess when she sang last year in various venues in Ayia Napa, and you may also have heard her on Uk radio and TV.
Lots of you will also know George who has entertained in local Tavernas for a while now and of course he was a valued member of The Gatehouse Singers (GHS)who many of you will remember, he's the guy who sang Old Man River.
You will also remember the beautiful Georgina Dobson who often sang solo for GHS ,you may also recall her singing As Long as He Needs Me from Oliver.
There will be other friends entertaining to and when I have more info about them I will let you know who they are.
Tickets will cost €5 and you can book them now from Carolyn Berry 99126424 and Jane Mainwaring 99782684....or you can pay on the night.....as the booking list for tickets is already open you may be wise to book your tickets now.
This is a Fund Raising Concert for St John the Evangelist Church, Deryneia.
Do try to come along, enjoy some great singing, have fun picnicking with friends in this lovely venue looking out to sea and don't forget to bring a cushion..

Update on Jess.
Jess was part of a group who sang at the MOBO awards, and were nominated for one themselves as well as winning a Gospel Music award. Since then she has been a TV and Radio presenter before returning to professional singing. Jess will be singing a mix of modern and classic pop and music from the musicals. The Oroklini choir and George Zoumenis are both well known in this area to.
Bring your picnic and drinks and sing along to those songs you know, hum those you don,t. ALL WELCOME.
Hi forum folks, The Jess Concert tickets are selling steadily, if you haven't bought or reserved yours yet it would be a good idea to contact Jane, Carolyn or celebrations.
Jess & Friends will now have its own Ice Cream man! Panicos, who normally attends the Ayia Thekla market phoned today to offer his services for the night, and has promised us a gift from his profits! How lovely is that. Even more reason to come and enjoy a lovely evening out, if you ask me.

Taff, Panicos is a lovely guy, he has been our regular Ice Cream man in Ayia Thekla since we moved in 9.5 years ago. A really kind guy plus he has the yummyist ice cream. Thank you Panicos for offering to support the concert.
Hi Forum folks, Jess has arrived in Cyprus ready for the concert on Thursday 13th July. There are still some tickets left if you haven't already got yours or you can buy on the night.
Is 6pm start of concert with picnic before? Only asking as not sure if picnic is planned during an interval. Also noticed last week they now have parking in the field on the left of amphitheatre.
Prizes for the raffle at the Jess & Friends event, due
to happen on Thursday this coming week include vouchers from Kennedy Bar, Kokkos Bar, Cyprus Diving Centre, a filled picnic basket, and various other delightful suprises. The ticket number prize will be a Mojito's voucher - also well worth winning, and worth more than the cost of the ticket! Maybe it will be you who wins! You won't know if you don't come and include your ticket number in the draw! ALL WELCOME
Hi Sensible Bob, start time is 6pm, bring your picnic and eat at your preference, interval if you wish, yes there is parking in the big field opposite the park on your left as you turn down the amphitheater road. Please also note that there is now good disability access by ramps to to the amphitheater. If you have disability queries please ring Jane ( tel no in previous post) she will be able to help you.
Hi Forum Folks, thought you might like to have an idea of some of the songs Jess will be singing, so here you go.
Shout, I can remember Lulu singing this.
Penny Arcade, love this one.
I will follow him, Sister Act wasn't,t it?
Ain,t that a kick in the head, wasn't,t that Sinatra?
Circle of Life, another one of my favorites.
Plus lots more and Jess says bring your voices and join in.
