Our membership fees start from just £10 per year for adults and you can get involved via a range of roles.
ACTING
We don't have a star system- anyone who wants to act gets a part in at least one production a year. You learn by doing, so no experience is necessary, and other cast members are very supportive- you will work hard, but you will have a lot more fun than you get watching a drama on TV. There is nothing like the adrenalin rush you get from performing in front of a live audience!
BACKSTAGE
A play is like an iceberg- there are many more people involved than those you see on stage- and it is all about team-work! We need stage managers, scene painters and designers, people to source, design and look after costumes and props, writers, directors and researchers- people who will say: Why don't we do such and such- I saw it at …. and it was hilarious! Your ideas are as important as your work!
TECHNICAL
Lighting and sound are fascinating and often crucial to the impact and atmosphere of a play. We have a fully equipped and computerised sound and lighting cabin. Are you a computer geek? Are you Gadget Man or Woman?
FRONT OF HOUSE
If you don't want the relatively long term commitment (about 8 weeks) of a production, you can enjoy the buzz of performance by helping meet and greet, or sell raffle tickets, drinks and ice creams on one or more nights.
