ACTion is absolutely delighted to have won permission to stage best-selling children’s author Dame Jacqueline Wilson’s tale of plucky Foundling-child, ‘Hetty Feather’ – brought thrillingly to life on stage by award-winning script writer, Emma Reeves!
ROLL UP, ROLL UP and join Hetty on her escape from the Foundling Hospital. THRILL as she discovers Tanglefield’s Travelling Circus. QUAKE as she braves the scary streets of Victorian London. And CHEER as she overcomes all in the search to find her real mother and a true family of her own!
Open Auditions at the Terry O’Toole Theatre, North Hykeham on January 15th 7-9pm and January 20th 3-5pm. Please see our AUDITIONS page for full information, or call the theatre office 01522 701305 for more information
ACTion Community Theatre is super-delighted to announce that we have secured the amateur rights to stage ‘Miracle on 34th Street’ for our December 2018 Christmas production!
Based upon the classic 1947 Twentieth Century Fox screenplay by Valentine Davis and adapted for the stage by Mountain Community Theater, the show promises to be a delightful, heart-warming Christmas production; the production will feature a live 3-piece band playing seasonal music from the 30s / 40s. [NOTE: this is a play with incidental music NOT a musical!]
