​
As ever, we’ll be performing The Tempest in our trademark ‘Shakespearean’ costume and style.  We’ll be making the most of the substantial amount of music in the play. (It’s really a musical, written in 1613, with a very simple plot).  We hope you will enjoy the spectacular imagery, sounds, dance, and of course the poetry of The Tempest while sitting in Bury St Edmunds’ lovely Abbey Gardens with your picnic in the warm July sunshine!

Next recruitment workshop
Monday 26 September 2022
7.30 pm
Unitarian Meeting House, Churchgate St, Bury St Edmunds

We're always eager to welcome new members.  Whether you're an experienced actor, play director or technician, or someone who just enjoys participating in theatre projects of any kind, we'd love to meet you.  If you're 16 or over why not come along to one of our twice yearly Recruitment Workshop and get involved?
We don't hold auditions to cast plays because we feel these can be too intimidating, especially for less experienced actors (or complete beginners!).  If you are one of our members, we'll do our utmost to get you involved in our productions.  We do that in whatever way and to whatever degree you feel most comfortable, as an actor, backstage, wardrobe, tech, set construction, lighting...  We do need to meet you though, some come along to take part in our world of live theatre!

ps - You can call or email also of course...
