High Wycombe Area for over fifty years, and we look forward to providing a wide

future.
Our

all share an enthusiasm for for the performing arts.
Drama groups are a
great way of meeting people, so if you'd like to join us please

We started way back in 1958 with a production of
'Women Aren't Angels' at Mill End School, and the following year began a long
run of annual pantomimes which funded the group's other activities. As you will
see from the list of our past
productions, the enthusiasm and funding were available to mount some
ambitious large cast productions which were always well received. |

|
| Many changes have taken place over the fifty years.
The high pressures and long hours of modern working life limit people's time,
but not their enthusiasm for quality drama. These days our style is more that
of a jobbing theatre company, prepared to tackle all sorts of drama whenever
and wherever the opportunity arises. |

| In common with other local groups, we face the
practical problem of finding appropriate venues for
both rehearsal and productions. Although the Wycombe Swan is a terrific
facility for the town, it's too large and expensive for regular use by local
groups, and of course the annual professional panto is formidable competition!
The Town Hall however, with its flexible seating, is an ideal size and many
Fourways productions take place there. |
|
| To fit in with member's busy diaries, we run each
production as a project, drawing on acting, technical and support talent from a
pool of resource. So even if your spare time is limited, there will always be
an opportunity to be involved - all are welcome! |
