HADS are happy to share that we are returning for another year of panto! This year we are thankful to Andrew Love for writing this year's show; 'Goldilocks Holmes and the 3 bears' - a unique twist on 2 well known stories.

This year we are having a read through of the script before auditions for everyone interested to come along and get to know the story as well as a view of the characters in preparation for auditions. The read through will take place on Sunday 7th September from 3-6pm at Hadleigh Football Club, followed by 2 opportunities to audition; Wednesday 10th September 6-9pm (children will be finished by 8pm latest) and Sunday 14th September 3-6pm, both sets of auditions are being held at Hadleigh Football Club.
This year HADS are proud to share that we are supported by Hadleigh Football Club, and we are grateful that we are able to use their club house for the majority of our rehearsals. Show week will take place in February half term (16th - 22nd February), we ask that all potential cast members are available this week for final dress rehearsals and then the shows Thursday 19th, Friday 20th and 2 shows on Saturday 21st.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact HADS committee on [email protected]. We look forward to seeing new faces alongside current members of the society soon.
