Supernatural Shropshire
We’re taking Supernatural Shropshire out on a short tour this autumn, thus rounding up the series of performances of this home grown production. Tickets are £10 plus a booking fee and each show starts at 7.30pm. Dates as follows:
Saturday 26 October, Oscars at The Assembly Rooms Ludlow. Tickets HERE.
Thursday 31 October, The Edge Theatre, Much Wenlock. Tickets HERE. We have been informed that necessary building work is to be carried out at William Brookes School on 31/10 and 01/11, which will prohibit public access to The Edge Arts Centre. Our production of Supernatural Shropshire has therefore been relocated to Wenlock Pottery, Old Chapel House, Sheinton St, Much Wenlock TF13 6HT. All tickets purchased for the performance at The Edge will be honoured at the rearranged venue and the door opening and start times will remain the same. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and The Edge will, should people require it, offer a refund as well as contact everyone who has already purchased tickets, regarding the new arrangements. Due to a reduced capacity the performance at The Pottery has effectively now sold out.
Friday 01 November, Montford Parish Hall (near Shrewsbury). Tickets HERE.
Friday 15 November, All Stretton Village Hall (near Church Stretton). Tickets HERE.
We look forward to seeing you there!
How we began
SDC was founded in 1958 as Shropshire County Drama Group by the late Bert Amies, OBE, the former county drama adviser. The name was changed to Shropshire Drama Company in 2005. It became a registered charity in 2024 – number: 1207580.
Our aim
Enshrined in the constitution of SDC is Bert’s original brief to perform ‘challenging, worthwhile and experimental drama’, which up until recently was SDC’s strapline. It is now ‘engaging live theatre’.
What we offer
SDC aspires to provide its audiences with high quality performances covering a wide genre of plays. Its members have the chance to be involved in productions at a variety of venues. Opportunities are also available to develop and hone skills in various aspects of theatre, through an expansive and continually reviewed programme of workshops and other social activities.
