Barton SeagraveBonkers Theatrical were founded in 2008 and produce straight plays as opposed to musical theatre. We strive to produce gritty & thought provoking or very funny theatre with each and every performance. We believe the Theatre is not somewhere that you should go, watch, be entertained but ultimately forget when you walk out of the foyer. It is our mission to encourage our audiences to think about what they have seen and the characters that have reached out to them. If we can make you consider that, after the event, then we as a company have succeeded.

We aim to do two major, full-length productions each year, usually in March and October.
We have had notable successes at various Drama Festivals, with both One-Act and Full Length plays, and have taken part in the National Drama Festivals Association’s British All-Winners Finals on several occasions.
We entered the Isle of Man Full-Length Festival as an extra production for our 70th anniversary year in 2006. We were thrilled to win, and then took part in the All Winners Final 2006 at Woking. We successfully defended our title at the Isle of Man in 2007 and, after a 6 year break, will be returning there again at Easter 2013.

Corby
Eclipse first started in 2000 with an ethos of theatre for all by all! We have and always have had a membership age of 10-110 and we plan our shows to accommodate everyone.
Eclipse is very much about taking theatre to the community, although we perform in the Willows arts centre, one of our traditions is to take our annual pantomime on tour around local primary schools on a profit share (usually in the first week of December). These pantomimes are written by members of our company and help us keep close ties with our friends in Corby.
We also like to promote talent from within. Our shows are usually, directed, choreographed, musically directed and staged by people in or friends of our society.
This is not to say that our new friends or new members can't have ago as Eclipse is a have ago society! If you want to give it a shot, we will support you!
