We are an Amateur Dramatic group based in the Hope Valley - the heart of the Peak District - who enjoy putting on productions for the local community. We welcome new members to come along and join in whether it be on the boards or back stage. Contact any of the committee for more details.
On a cold winter’s night in the Cheese someone slurred “I’ve always wanted to do a pantomime . . .”. Yet more pints later, and HADIT was born! A flurry of meetings and auditions followed, along with some serious fund raising and enthusiastic community support. Cinderella took to the boards in March 2010. We now have four pantos, fourteen plays, one live radio play, one semi-staged reading and six Wake’s Week Murder Mysteries under our belts.
We rehearse on Mondays and Wednesdays. Our main performance venue is Hope Methodist Hall.
New members will be made very welcome, whether as actors or for help with one or more of the many other aspects of a production. These include directing, choreography, music, set building, costume, props, stage management, lighting, sound and front of house.
We organise social evenings and theatre trips, as well as open play readings and stagecraft sessions when we aren’t in rehearsal. We have also continued the way we started, with regular Wednesday get togethers in the Old Hall.
