We’re going to see if there actually is any talent in our family. But don’t worry there’s no big red buttons or Simon Cowell!
The talent show is always a highlight and it’s amazing to see the talent that comes out of the woodwork! But to have a talent show we need some people with talent!
Are you a musician, actor, storyteller, poet, comedian, ventriloquist, stuntman, dancer, snake charmer, pro-wrestler, juggler, plate-spinner or fire-breather? If so we want you. To be honest even if you can do anything remotely entertaining we want you! So get in touch with Gareth using the contact form below.
Enjoy the company and stories of the oldest (and wisest) members of the Harper family all in one place and what better way than over a cup of tea and a slice of cake!
