Live music from Sam Amestoy
Sam is a French/British performer based in Reading who has had the joy of performing across the world on land and at sea. His experience ranges from gracing the stages of London’s top theatres, including the Royal Albert Hall, London Palladium, and Cadogan Hall, to performing internationally on cruise ships. As Associate Artist at Reading Rep, he has appeared in productions such as A Christmas Carol and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and is currently writing a new musical.
Sam said: “I’m over the moon to be working with PACT again and feel incredibly excited to be singing at the garden party. Every single member of the charity – staff, parents and children alike – brings such passion to making our community a better place, and it’s an honour to play even a small part in that. Here’s to a wonderful event and many more years of making a difference together!”
What a previous attendee had to say
“One of the highlights of PACT’s garden parties is the gathering together of like minded souls in beautiful surroundings to support a very worthy cause.
PACT’s garden parties are extremely sociable events in beautiful gardens with fabulous cakes and tea. We hear extraordinary stories of how people’s lives have formed through strength and support and the love that children and families have found and made together.”
