Betty Proctor

 
Betty was the Pianist for LRP in the pre-Broadbent Theatre days.  She was trained in music in Manchester and until recently played for the Choral Society in Market Rasen.  Betty was also a stalwart member of the Holton Players from the time she moved to Tealby with her husband Hugh and saw the Holton Players in "Arms and the Man".  One of the first plays she performed in was "Night Must Fall"  Of the plays that Betty was cast in, she tells me that she usually got the maid's part!

Betty wrote the music for "Murder in the Red Barn" which was the play that had to relocate to De Aston School after the Country Theatre (Nissen Hut) at Holton famously burned down.
