A performance is always a very busy project and relies on a diverse amount of jobs and skills to make it the success that we do, from acting in the play itself to backstage work, costumes, props, scenery to selling tickets, producing programmes and front of house to name a few!.

Our last show was, "The Love Nest" written by Raymond Hopkins, a farcical comedy, with a romantic twist and plenty of laughs. A long-married couple return to the guest house where they enjoyed their honeymoon decades earlier in the hope they can rekindle the magic of their early days only to be beset with, let's say, more than they bargained for!

We are now on social media! Like us on FaceBook or Follow us on Twitter using the links above right to be kept up to date with what we are up to!

Our last play, 'The Ghost Train', by Arnold Ridley was a huge success with full houses every evening! A big well done to all the cast, crew and front of house who were involved and a special thank you to our dedicated directors, Peter Fisher and Grace Wells.

Our 2014 pantomime, Puss in Boots was a great success and was enjoyed by all who came to see it, adults and children alike. The show included something for everyone, adventure, romance, comedy, a dashing hero, a beautiful princess, a shapeshifting ogre and of course, a talking cat wearing boots!

Are you interested in the dramatic arts in any way, from performing on stage to getting involved in all sorts of backstage roles such as stage management, lighting, sound, costumes, props or stage design to name a few!

Then we are looking for you!

Witney Dramatic Society will be holding an open evening to which all memebers past and present and especially any potential new members are invited.

Come and see what we are all about and get a chance to read the scripts from our forthcoming production.

We will be meeting at Como Lounge, High Street, Witney on Wednesday, 12th July at 7.30pm.

Look forward to seeing you there!
