Directors Wanted!
Directors wanted! Following the success of our May 2023 production The 39 Steps, TAODS is keen to put on MORE SHOWS (maybe even a musical…) in addition to our annual panto. If you are interested in directing and perhaps even have a show in mind, please get in touch at [email protected], and we’ll arrange a chat with a couple of friendly committee members to hear about your ideas! You don’t necessarily have to have directed anything before; we are keen to encourage new talent.

Our next show…
So another year’s panto is done and dusted – congratulations to our wonderful cast and all the other people behind the scenes who helped make it happen! You can take a look at some photos here.
Our next production will be The 39 Steps – an uproarious comedy adapted by Patrick Barlow from John Buchan’s novel and Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film. The show dates will be May 11, 12 & 13.
In this version of the 1935 movie a minimum of four actors play all the parts (there are 139 if you count them all).
We will probably have a few extra (!) and are looking for performers with the ability to give an energetic comedy performance, perhaps have a stab at an accent or two and switch between several roles.
AUDITIONS:
Sunday 26th February, 2 to 4.30pm at Dartington Village Hall (in the meeting room down the path to the right of the main hall).
Thursday 2nd March, 7 to 9pm at the Masonic Hall, Totnes.
We hope to see you there!
