About STARS
St Augustine’s Repertory Society (STARS) was founded in 1981 by a small group of individuals who were keen to establish a new ‘social’ dimension to the parish. They brought a mix of expertise and enthusiasm together with a strong can-do attitude. They had nothing to start with - no stage – no props – no costumes – no scenery but they where very determined. Above all there was commitment to engage with everyone around who was in any way interested in amateur theatre no matter at what standard. It was then as it is now all about having fun whilst presenting as professional production as possible. Over the years the society has built up substantial resource both in terms of people and equipment. The society now has its own wardrobe, lights, sound, & staging, as well as significant expertise in all of these departments.
Since those early days, the society has welcomed new members from many denominations and others who respect our Christian values. Currently our membership numbers ----- In addition, we are very proud of our Young STARS who present their own show each year.
We continue to welcome new members for both acting and support activities. Please click the 'mail' link to reach our membership secretary.
STARS is foremost a group of people who get on well with each other in the whole process of staging productions, it is not a ‘Drama Group’ per se – and that we believe is our success story. |
