Welcome to Witney Dramatic Society (est. 1946)

We are an amateur drama group based in Witney, Oxfordshire and have been performing a huge variety of pantomimes, plays, musicals and comedies for the past 70 years. All our performances are held in the Methodist Church, WItney and have been a big sucess. We always welcome new members, so, if you are interested, head over to our 'Join us' page or why not join us at one of our monthly social nights held at the Eagle Tavern, Witney on the first Wednesday of each month at 7.30pm.

Our Next Production - October 2017!
Our next production will be a double bill of two brilliant one-act plays, one with an air of mystery and the other with plenty of good farcical humour.
'The Return of Lady Bracknell'
by Graham Jones
It's two weeks to the production of 'The importance of being Earnest' and Rebecca has flu, so there's no one to play Lady Bracknell. Except... this strange lady, dressed for the part, who knows all the lines and stays in character all the time...Who is she?
'It's Not Your Day Is It?'
by Eric Scott
Lothario Brad is having a bad day as his business dealings, his various extra-marital philanderings and the treachery of his friends all come together and his world comes crashing down.
We hope you enjoy them and look forward to seeing you there.

Monthly social - all welcome!
Please note: Our next socials will be held in the Como Lounge, Market Square, Witney
On the 2nd Wednesday of every month, members of the WDS (past and present) and especially anyone interested in joining are invited to meet at 7:30 onward in the Como Lounge, Market Square, Witney.
It will be lovely to see as many of you there to catch up with past members of the society and meet potential mew members!
Having this regular meeting time and place will be a great opportunity for new members to meet us in a social environment when we actually have a chance to get to know them without being busy with rehearsals and so they can see we aren't just all work and no play.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
