We are a small multi-cultural drama group based in the London
Borough of Brent. We are open to all and encourage members to take
an active part in our productions whether performing, backstage or
front of house. We usually mount two productions each year as well
as performing at Borough festivals and community events.
We were formed in 1948, more than
sixty years ago, and started out as part of a youth club.
We have never been a particularly large group usually numbering
between 10 and 20 members. Our small size makes us a very friendly
and welcoming group and means that everyone has a go at every aspect
of theatre, from acting and directing to make up and set building.
The past few years have seen a change in our fortunes as membership
has increased and we have secured better venues for performance. We
now meet at St Mungo’s Centre. We perform
our plays at Malorees
Junior School. We were successful in applying for a Lottery grant
to improve our performances and equipment and we also received a
Millennium grant to produce a video history. Further Awards of Arts
For All
grants were received in 2006 and 2009 for our work within the
community.
We received charitable status on the basis of the strong community
content of our work.
For further details please contact, Cathy, our Secretary,
telephone 020 8452 5239 or Martin, our Chair,

email us.
We always welcome new volunteers. Please contact us by phone or
email before you set out.
We are happy to welcome volunteers from all over the world. Our
group currently includes speakers of French, Italian, Greek and
German and our recent volunteers have included speakers of Polish
and Bulgarian.
