The Carnon Downs Drama Group – ‘How it all began’
The Carnon Downs Drama Group (CDDG ) was born in 1970 when a young university student called Geoff Aver got together with the village W.I. It was closely followed by the panto ‘Cinderella’ which was a resounding triumph playing to packed houses including people beyond the boundries of Carnon Downs. The membership grew as each new member invited oth

ers to join. Inviting performers and directors from outside the village to work with the strong local community based casts was the principal upon which the group was formed and that still happens to this day. Over the years the drama group has gone from strength to strength attracting many talented people of all ages. The group has won awards for their pantomimes, plays and individual performances. Many have gone onto appear in the London’s West End. How proud the group is of that achievement. In 1990 having outgrown the Carnon Downs Village Hall they moved to Perranwell where they have remained eversince. They kept their name which held such a good reputation for them and the group continues to wow their audiences

The panto magic is returning to Perranwell, with all the slapstick comedy, colourful costumes, heroes and villains that will entail. This time we will be bringing the intriguing tale of Sleepy Hollow into the panto universe!

A wide range of cast members will be needed for this panto, including the usual panto dame, comedy duo, boo-worthy villain, cheerful hero, daft sidekick and many other roles.

We will introduce you to the story and all the various characters at the Sleepy Hollow launch evening on Wednesday 9th September at 7pm. If you would like to audition for a role in the panto, we will have auditions on Sunday 13th September 10am-1pm.

We will be delighted to welcome anyone who wishes to be part of this fun show.
