Did you know that next year Witney Dramatic Society will be celebrating 80 years of entertaining Witney.

Did you also know that some of the halogen lights we currently use in our productions are almost as old as the society itself?

We are therefore looking to replace them with more flexible LED lighting which as well as being more reliable, will also significantly reduce our environmental impact.


If you are able help us by making a donation, no matter how small, we would be grateful.


You can find out more about our project and make a donation via the following link - Thank you

Welcome to Witney Dramatic Society (est. 1946)

Puss in Boots

Welcome to Witney Dramatic Society (WDS).  We are an amateur drama group based in Witney, Oxfordshire and have been performing a huge variety of pantomimes, plays, musicals and comedies for the past 70 years.  All our performances are held in the Methodist Church, WItney and have been a big sucess.  We always welcome new members, so, if you are interested, head over to our 'Join us' page or why not join us at one of our rehearsal evenings. See our calendar page for dates and times.  You are more than welcome to join us!.

We hope you enjoy our website and look forward to seeing you at our next performance!

We Need YOU for Our Next Panto!

The Wind in the Willows

After the huge success of Hound of the Baskervilles, we're having a short break - one week to be precise!

The first reading for our pantomime of The Wind in the Willows will take place on 9th November, in the Mary and Martha room,  High Street Methodist Church, Witney OX286HG (in the annexe at the back, next to the car park).

Lots of fabulous opportunities for anyone interested in taking part - small, medium and large parts available!

Come on in and join the fun - you know you want to (oh, yes you do!).

A huge congratulations to Liam Hamblin, who won Best Actor for his wonderful performance as Buttons! 👏
