We have plans in place for monthly club nights between now and the end of the year. These are a chance for members to get together but also for new faces to come along and get involved before they join. Everyone is welcome!

First up is an open read-through of our spring production, Dangerous Corner by JB Priestly, which will take place at 7pm on Monday 5 October in the clubrooms. Auditions for the show will take place later in the month (keep your eyes peeled for more info!) but you don’t have to be planning to audition to come along the read-through.

We are also planning a play read on Tuesday 3 November (time and play TBC) and a Christmas party and quiz in early December.

We would love to see members old and new at any of these events!

A special shout out for who leant us some props for the Fringe.

They have their own show, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, starting this week at The Little Theatre in Dundee if anyone is going to be in the area or fancies a day trip to Tayside.
