A relaxed, friendly reading

This isn't a formal audition. We sit round together, read through parts of the play and chat about it. There's nothing to learn or prepare, and nobody is put on the spot. Newcomers and old hands are equally welcome, and you can come just to listen and find out more.

Getting there

  • The Farmer's View is the community hub at the top of Hazel Grove, on the Hurst Farm estate, with parking on site
  • Lifts can often be shared. Ask us and we will try to pair you up
  • Can't make the date? Get in touch and we'll find another way for you to read

Not an actor?

Every production needs directors, stage managers, lighting and sound operators, set builders, costume makers, props hunters and front of house volunteers. If you love theatre but prefer to be behind the scenes, we would love to hear from you.
