Best of all, perhaps, after all expenses were met the show raised £258 for the charity Deafblind Scotland’s Field of Dreams fund.
Hosted by Lenzie Union the show saw 16 young people displaying talents which ranged from Ella Harrison playing saxophone to a skilful violin recital by Alina Tang from Primary 4 in Lenzie Meadow.
