none of us started out as actors. We have a teacher, a locksmith and two students among us. Just come to the community hall on a Tuesday or Thursday at half past six and take a seat at the back.
For the first month you're just trying it out: you pay nothing and sign nothing. If you like it here, you fill in the form and pay £40 a year, or half that if you're a student.
We're also looking for handy people for lighting, scenery and costumes.
