At the Little Theatre

The Theatre is centrally located and well-equipped. The Society receives good support from the community. We provide the chance for people of all ages and walks of life to become involved with any aspects of theatre production; from acting through to backstage, lighting and sound, advertising, marketing and promotion.

Putting on a production is hard work, fun, and ultimately very satisfying. We need a range of skills - it's not just about being on stage! We would love to have you join us. Come along to our regular Tuesday morning gatherings at 10 am, or contact us below.
