So, if you or your child are interested in being part of something special and have a passion for performing, particularly in acting, then join our community theatre; you will not be let down. We welcome anyone aged 6 and over (currently improv classes for 16 and over are taking place on Saturdays between 3:30pm and 5:00pm).
