High quality, memorable entertainment
We’re delighted to be able to confirm that we’ll be taking part in the summer variety shows in Llandudno town hall again this year.
This will be our fifth year of summer shows with Happy Faces Children’s Charity, and we’re really looking forward to working with them again.
Provisional dates are every Wednesday from the beginning of May to the beginning of October, and we’ll give you more information as soon as we have it.
I was so pleased that Jay Gatling agreed to take part in a young peoples’ variety show “Shine” at Theatr Colwyn, Colwyn Bay on Nov 30th 2012.
The act formed the finale of the show and was lively, colourful and clever. It left the audience completely spellbound and wondering “How on earth did they do that?”
I would not hesitate to ask them back if I put on another show, and will certainly recommend them to others.

We were delighted to be asked by Viv Perry, the Mayor of the Bay of Colwyn, to take part in Shine recently. Theatr Colwyn is a special place for us, as it’s where Elemental’s first public performance took place.
The show was a celebration of the talents of young people in the Colwyn Bay area, and featured lot of local acts, including dancers The Unknown, Hallam Cleverley, Bryn Ellian School, Alaw Tastig and Kieran Eastwood-Mulvaney, with Mr Dilwyn Price as the compere. All proceeds from the show went to McMillan Cancer Support and Action for Children (Young Carers).
I couldn’t resist taking this photograph of our dressing room door – we’ve never had a star on the door before! Oddly enough, this was the same dressing room as our first performance here in 2009.
It was lovely to be back at Theatr Colwyn, and we hope we’ll be back again soon!
We recently took part in the launch of the new Honda CR-V at North Wales Honda, in Llandudno.
Entertaining, thrilling and thoroughly enjoyable. I would highly recommend Jay and Amelia for a superb night’s entertainment.

This is part two of our behind the scenes look at the shows we took part in over the summer at Llandundo town hall. Part one is here.
Jay had a lot of different costumes this year, with a grand total of nine costume changes in all. I’ve put together a selection of photographs which show you just some of the different outfits that he wore.
Here he is, taking a chance to relax before the start of the show.
Left to Right: Ready for the pub scene, in character for the Box Sketch, and the two costumes he wore for our 1940s themed magic routine.
And finally, the pictures that I’ve been waiting all year to put on the blog! We’ve been keeping quiet about this, so as not to spoil the surprise for our audiences, but now that the shows are over, I can show you the photographs:
Yes, that’s a photograph of Jay in a wig and high heels, dressed up as one of the Andrews Sisters! The three guys did a brilliant job of miming along to Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, complete with dance routine.
All the shows that we did in Llandudno town hall were with Happy Faces Children’s Charity – a local charity which raises funds for disabled and disadvantaged children all over North Wales.
