Why the community needs usWe have been in existence for 42 years and we are a Section and Founder Member of Sedgefield Community Association. We provide an outlet for anyone in our community with a love of theatre, to become involved, in any capacity, in our 5 main productions each year. We stage plays in March, June and November and a Pantomime between Christmas and New Year. In addition, we host a Drama Festival of One Act Plays each September, with a G.O.D.A. adjudicator, attracting groups from the much wider region.
Our impact on the communityWe are an award-winning Drama Group, highly regarded both locally and nationally. We measure the benefits to the community through customer satisfaction and ticket sales. Our fundraising projects ensure that we develop our home base, Sedgefield Parish Hall, into a top-rate, versatile, working entertainment venue, suitable for any kind of entertainment, offering a comprehensive and dedicated system of production. This is highly desirable to all members of the community, both users and patrons.
