PVADS on Tour and One Act Play Festival

We are again entering 2 plays into the Swindon Arts Centre One Act Play Festival from 23rd to 25th February which we will also be performing at Wootton Rivers Village Hall on Sat 11th February (tbc).

The 2 plays chosen are a Youth Production 'Time and Rosemary' by Rena Pope and 'Tippers' by Gillian Plowman, both of which we have performed in front of our 'home' audience. This should hopefully give us an edge for the competition performances.

We would be grateful for additional back stage crew for the adult play which we hope to enhance with some technical wizardry and any Juniors interested in small cameo roles in the Youth play. Please call either Martin (810436) or Nettie (562248)

Spring Play - Noises Off!

N.B. Audtion and Performance Dates have changed
- see 'Current Show' Page


Now here is a date to definitely put in your diary - after 3 years of trying to get a license to perform the famous 'Noises Off' by Michael Frayn we can now announce that we will be producing this play for your enjoyment from Wed 3rd to Sat 6th May.

It is side splittingly funny and very technically demanding.

AUDITIONS will be held on Sunday 12th February at the Bouverie Hall at 6pm. Please contact either Martin (810436) or Nettie (562248) to register your interest.
