Welcome to the Faringdon Dramatic Society Website
"Entertainment for all the family in Faringdon and beyond"
Last Production: Lark Rise
We hope that you will come and enjoy our productions. Faringdon Dramatic Society has been entertaining the local community for over seventy years and the standard of acting has often been compared to that seen at a professional theatre. The society has been the proud winner of many county and national awards. We are an amateur theatre group that normally stages at least two formal productions and one pantomime each year.
And it isn’t all about the acting! We are also often complimented on the excellent quality of the stage set, make-up and costumes used in our productions. You may be surprised to hear that most are created specially “from scratch” for each production by the hard working “behind the scenes” members of our society. Why not come and join us? Everyone is welcome.
