Ferring Amateur Dramatic Society proudly opened our new store building today. A big thankyou to everyone who worked so hard to bring this altogether. Pat Atree cut the ribbon and gave us a brief talk on the history of FADS which was formed in April 1931 in Ferring, West Sussex. They put on their first production, Five Birds in a Cage, that June, followed by more shows later in 1931 and 1932. 
It’s one of the oldest amateur drama groups in West Sussex. By the year 2000, they’d already staged over 200 productions, typically doing three full-length plays a year at Ferring Village Hall. They’ve won several awards at local drama festivals over the decades. 
We welcome new members of all ages, and you can find their full production archives and current shows on their site, ferring-drama.org.uk.
