Auditions for our Spring production

The Spring showstopper will be a full on variety show, so u3a Drama are looking for actors, singers, comics, dancers, or anyone else with a variety talent to share. The theme will be 'work' or 'office'.
If you'd like to get involved, then auditions are being held on Saturday 31st January between 10:30 and 13:00 at the Pensionistas (top floor).
For information about the different characters, scripts, songs etc. or if you have any questions, then please get in touch.
Our Christmas 2025 performance
The last show was "Who Killed Santa?", a rip roaring comedy farce, full of laughs.
Here's what the group leader Cheryl Speer had to say: Congratulations to the Drama Group on their successful run of "Who Killed Santa?" in December. The cast and crew had a super fun time and thank everyone who came to see the show and support us. Our next show will be a variety show in Spring 2026. Be sure to join us either as a participant or audience member!

Congratulations to everyone in the Drama Group for a successful and fun production of "The Retirement of the Witches of Ipswich" on 9 and 10 May 2025! We all worked diligently to put this show on and are grateful to everyone who came to see it. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to our next production!
