Starting Wednesday, 15 April. Contact Group Leader if you are interested in joining the group.

Are you ready to embrace your inner actor, director or simply enjoy the thrill of bringing a story to life? We are thrilled to announce the proposed formation of a new Short-Play Drama Group, now named the Carnforth Curtain Call! This exciting new group is designed to be fun, accessible and intellectually engaging, focusing on short, sharp scripts that pack a punch.

What’s the Vision? The core idea is to work on a series of short, high-quality and generally quirky plays, each lasting just 10 to 15 minutes and featuring only two or three actors. These plays are often chosen for their wit and for having a memorable 'twist in the tail'!

Over the course of a term, we will select, rehearse and then stage several of these mini-dramas for a small, friendly audience of friends and family – truly giving our members a rewarding "Curtain Call" moment.

What Will Group Members Do?

This is a collaborative group and there are roles for everyone:

● Actors: You will get a chance to take on specific roles in the chosen short plays.

● Directors: Members are welcome to try their hand at directing one of the short pieces, with guidance available.

● Readers: We'll start by reading through a selection of scripts together to find the ones that excite us most.

Key Details & Commitment

As we will be working towards a performance, a degree of commitment is essential. Once the casting is decided, we will rely on all members to attend rehearsals regularly.
