We stage two productions each year at Weston-super-Mare's professional theatre, The Playhouse usually during the week following Easter and in mid October. Over the last 10 years the Society has received many top awards for their shows.
We also train a large group of children in theatre art who are called 'The Oppitts' and whose ages range from 6 - 16. Many of these children have appeared in our main productions and featured especially in shows such as 'Oliver', 'The Sound of Music' and more recently 'The King and I'. 'The Music Man' which was the Society's autumn 2006 production had a considerable number of Oppitts taking part and in some cases taking major roles. The Oppitts also have their own productions and concerts. See Future Shows.
To celebrate the start of Christmas, the Society holds its annual Christmas Concert in St Judes Theatre. Both adult members and the Oppitts take part in an evening of Christmas music and carols followed by mince pies and coffee. |
