GLASSES were raised at an annual meeting and garden party which marked the 70th Anniversary of Harpenden High Street Players.

The Players put on two three-act plays each year in the Harpenden High Street Methodist Church Hall, one in the spring and the other in November.

On Sunday, members met to cut a cake and share anecdotes while the official celebration will take place in October with a special lunch for past, present and potential new members.

Anyone who is interested in acting, set design or building, sound, lighting, stage management or any of the activities that go into creating the final production should email info@hsplayers.org.uk
