My Story
For over 25 years, Joanna Raby, better known as 'Front Row Jo', never missed a night of the summer or Christmas shows at the Pavilion Theatre on Cromer Pier. She sat in the same seat immediately in front of the stage every time and was one of the Pier’s biggest supporters. After a short illness, Jo died in August 2022 of pancreatic cancer. We will now be leaving her seat, A17, empty for every performance of the summer or Christmas show in her honour. Jo’s Pier family miss her terribly and would like to raise money for Cancer Research in her memory. We will be holding fundraising events throughout the year and have bucket collections after shows. Thank you for visiting our Fundraising Page. The money we raise will help fund life-saving research and to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.
