Silsoe Village Hall, Silsoe, Bedfordshire MK45 4DYSilsoe Drama Club was founded in 1971 and has since produced over 113 different shows.
Renowned as one of the best amateur dramatics clubs in the region, SDC produces a varied programme of musicals, serious drama, family shows and the occasional grand spectacle.
For our members, we provide a fun hobby where you can meet new people and make friends. Firmly established as part of the life of the pretty Mid-Beds village of Silsoe, SDC usually performs in Silsoe Village Hall, but occasionally we have been lucky enough to 'do the Bard' in the fab setting of Wrest Park, and we hope to stage further productions in the park in the future.
We have two or three productions a year, usually one in the run-up to Christmas, one around Easter, and maybe a summer one too. Most of our productions are open to all, in fact we especially welcome new members at auditions. Our audition dates will be published on our website, or you can contact us to find out more.

StewartbyFounded as a school society in 1951 our first production was Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Pirates of Penzance", a show that has been performed several times since. The Society now performs a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta every November, a staged concert in April or May and occasional concerts by request to support local charities, churches and associations. We have long established links with Stewartby United Church with weekly rehearsals being held in the church hall. Over the years some members have gone on to sing with leading opera companies and during this period there have been a number of different producers and musical directors. All the productions are given in the village hall in Stewartby, fully costumed and always accompanied by a full orchestra right from day one. In 2008 and 2012 the society won prestigious awards for that year's show. We welcome new members or if anybody would like to come along to see what we do please contact us.

BedfordThe Swan Theatre Company (previously The Bradgate Players) can trace its origins back to the 1940’s. The renaming of the company came from a desire to change artistic direction and to inject a fresh input to the local theatrical scene. The newly named company aims to produce quality and exciting theatre and specialises in recent West End successes but also endeavors to present a balanced programme catering for all tastes and ages.
When the opening of The Place Bedford was first announced in 2001, Swan Theatre Company were one of the first groups to commit to using the venue giving Bedford Players Trust, the arts trust which established The Place, the confidence to proceed with the venture. Swan’s production of ‘A Day in the Death of Joe Egg’ was the first full scale production at the Place in January 2003, and many exciting and challenging productions have followed including "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead", "Miss Julie", "Talking Heads", and "Journeys' End" to name but a few. The Place, being a very flexible space, has enabled the Company to continue its policy of new and challenging productions presented in as a professional way as possible.
As a club, Swan are always looking for new members to get involved in any aspect. Interested people should contact the secretary.
