Celebrations of Dixie -

a tribute to the man heralded as Merseyside's gratest hero

All shareholders are invited to a forum meeting at which plans will be presented for events during Capital of Culture year to celebrate the unique William Ralph (Dixie) Dean.

Arts2u are producing The Dixie Dean Story written by John Keith, to be held at Liverpool Olympia Theatre in West Derby Road. This theatre experience will incorporate digital technology, music and football. The two-hour production will showcase Dixie’s triumphant times through to his dying day. There will be special guest appearances from Dixie’s family with participation from past and present football players.

The launch for this production will take place at the Shareholder Forum. Robert Elstone from Everton Football Club, local and national press along with local television & radio companies are invited.

We hope that as many shareholders as possible will be able to join us on Thursday, 29th November. As it would help us to have an idea of numbers attending, please email us to confirm if you would like to come.
