We are a welcoming and friendly group.
Here is just a brief summary of the group and our workings.

MAD is based at Orpington Methodist Church and we meet every Tuesday evening between 8-10pm, with a break for coffee at 9pm(just l0p for a drink and biscuit!)  We try to do three shows a year and are always keen to help people who would like to have a go at directing - just mention your desire to be the next Steven Spielberg and we'll try to help.   Our ages range from the very young, through not so young to “you’re as old as you feel”!!  We aim to do three productions a year which can range from high drama, to comedy, to complete farce - and anything in between!   Usually our family production is in February.  Each play is chosen by the director and run past the committee to check feasibility - we have had a flying Peter Pan and Canterbury Cathedral in the past!   Our meetings are usually noisy and busy with plenty of scope for those who are able to 'read in' a part, or paint a piece of scenery.  The play is auditioned and cast and at the end of each production we hold a cast party to relax and congratulate ourselves!

We are always pleased to see new members, so why not pop down on a Tuesday evening and have a cup of coffee and a chat.  You never know - you may find yourself the STAR of our next production!  BUT ... it’s not just actors we need.   Anyone who can knock in a nail, wield a paint brush, sew a piece of material, or make a good cup of tea or coffee will be very very welcome.  Hope to see you there.

Subs are £5 for an individual, £2 for a student or £10 for a family, so you save money by enrolling the whole clan!
We have an annual BBQ each July and a Christmas meal in December.
We have been known to frequent local pubs and have lost many a quiz!
We are led by a committee elected at the November AGM.

Please contact us if you have any questions - Pat 01689 872062
