Centre Stage Theatre

Centre Stage Theatre is a very friendly group committed to producing a wide range of entertainment to suit all tastes.
Our previous productions include comedies, musicals, concerts, our ever-popular pantomimes and even Shakespeare. 

We meet every Wednesday and Sunday evening in the Members’ Lounge at the Shirley Centre. In addition to honing our performing skills, we also make the majority of our scenery, costumes and properties ‘in house’.

We warmly welcome new members interested in any of these theatre skills. 

Please contact our secretary, Richard Saunders on r.g.saunders51@gmail.com

Why not take part in our next Show?

Our resident theatre group, Centre Stage Theatre will be staging the popular musical, ‘Annie’ in February 2025.
We are urgently seeking new members to take part.
You don’t need any previous experience, we welcome ‘first-timers’ as well as more accomplished performers. There are many parts, large and small, in this show. Please note that we have a full complement of children for the show, so, unfortunately, we are unable to accept anyone 16 or under. If being on stage is not your thing , we also need a lot of help in backstage roles. We build all our own sets and make the vast majority of our costumes and properties. If you have practical or technical skills, or would just like to help out, we’d be delighted to see you. We are a very friendly and sociable group.
To find out more, without any commitment, please message Richard on 07723 506084 or email CentreStage@ShirleyCentre.co.uk
