One Act Plays

TADS did really well at the GDA One Act Play Festival.  Bed & Breakfast won the Best Play, Best Original Play and Best Actress, with Cuffed  winning Best Actor and being Runner Up in the Best Original Play and Best Supporting Actress categories. The plays were also nominated for numerous other awards See the News Page for more details.

Bed & Breakfast will be presented again as part of the Autumn Entertainment described above.

TADS presented Cuffed by Brenda Read-Brown at this year's Cheltenham round of the All England One Act Play Festival.  It won best play, best original script, best in Gloucestershire and Penelope Tubbs won best actress.  It then went onto the quarter finals at Marlborough on 17 April where it came a close second. Penelope  Tubbs won Best Acting Award.

Brenda has also won the trophy for the best original script first presented at the first round of this year's United Kingdom One Act Play Festivals.  See the News page for more details

TADS was formed over 30 years ago and has built a reputation for producing high quality productions. There are more details in the About TADS pages.

The society is run by its members from its monthly meeting (as distinct from a committee which determines everything) at which visitors are welcome. We usually rehearse twice a week so if you cannot make a meeting why not come along to one of them, and meet us there?
