'Thespis' - a newsletter of amateur productions in the area

'Thespis' is a newsletter, produced by John Miles, of all the information on amateur drama productions in the Torbay and South Devon area.

The aim is for local groups to share information, help each other with casting, prop loans and to avoid clashes of production choices and dates.

If you are interested in taking part in amateur drama shows then this is the place to check out which groups exist, what shows are coming up and when auditions are being held.

Have fun on the stage or behind the scenes.

Latest update 22.4.2024

Hello, again. 

Spring productions are coming thick and fast, plus auditions for shows planned for later this year. 

There's lots to be involved with, and not just in acting and directing circles. Each company needs help with FOH work, props, prompt and ticket sales, so get involved... you will be made most welcome! 

There's a growing trend to use one-word titles; have you noticed? We saw 'Vanya' a few weeks ago (excellent) and hope to see 'Nye' tomorrow... at the cinema. 

Once again, please check the entries in 'Thespis' to ensure the information is correct... I've had three instances recently where dates and times have been changed.....and like Liz Truss says, I'm not perfect..... 'Thespis' is only of use if it's accurate. 

I'll see you out there!  John Miles.
