Could you be involved?
If you’re completely new to theatre, highly experienced or somewhere in between, we’d love you to be involved. Rehearsals tend to be on Thursday evenings (for over 12s) and Sunday afternoons (all ages). There are some get-ins and get-outs on Saturday day times and Sunday evenings, and occasionally dress or technical rehearsals on Saturday day times too. Cast and Crew Communication During a production, we usually have a private Facebook group for cast and crew members (parents of under 18s in the cast and crew are invited to join too). This provides a central repository for the rehearsal schedule and other production information, as well as lively discussion. |

Roles
We are all volunteers with different training and experience. You don’t have to be into acting, singing or dancing; if you have a skill, we can use it. If you want to learn a skill, here’s the place to try it out. We welcome children and adults of any age.* (*Under 7's if their parents are involved.)
Here are some of the roles that need to be filled to make sure a theatre company can function.
These roles vary in the amount of time and experience required. There is something to suit everyone!
