This Thursday, we’re excited to welcome Tall Tales for All Men to Whitworth.

Written and performed by Tony Curry, this powerful 50-minute one-man show explores themes of masculinity, family and loss.

Created as a creative intervention to raise awareness of men’s health and male su***de, the project opens up important conversations through storytelling, honesty and connection. It’s a cause that is close to our hearts and we’re truly humbled and proud to support it.

If you’re at a loose end on Thursday, please do come down and join us.

✨Out of the Spotlight Award Nominations✨

We are thrilled to announce our Association of Community Theatre - ACTUK out of the spotlight award nominations!

So much of the work that keeps our society running happens behind the scenes, which makes these nominations especially meaningful.

We are incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated team of volunteers who give their time, energy, and support year after year. These nominations are a testament to their hard work and commitment, and we couldn't be prouder.

Congratulations to all our nominees, and thank you to all of our volunteers for everything you do for our society.

Many of you in the amateur theatre community will know and love Steven. He has given so much time, friendship and support to so many people over the years and has played multiple roles across various societies.

Steven has recently suffered the heartbreaking loss of his husband Gary after a short battle with cancer, aged just 38.

We’ve set up this fundraiser to help support Steven through this incredibly difficult time. If you’re able to donate or share the page, it would mean so much.

Thank you for your kindness and support ❤️
