A plea from Our Chairman
The result is a shortage in all departments – directing, acting, prompting, set design and construction, labour to put sets up and take them down, props, publicity, front of house, refreshments etc etc. Therefore I am unashamedly appealing for help, because without it societies like ours cannot function indefinitely. Those who were vigorous many years ago inevitably become less so and cannot do as much! It would be a great pity if a society like ours now in its 88th year were to fold, but the future is stark without a fresh infusion of blood and that also means an increase in our audience. So please consider two things, one – join us as a member (or at the very least join our Patrons Scheme) and two – persuade other friends, family, colleagues etc. to come with you and watch our plays.

I
have the honour of being the current Chairman of Lucilla Dramatic Society, an
office I have held several times during my 36 year membership. However, the
Society has never faced such a challenging time as at present. We are not alone
in this as it is a common feature amongst societies nationwide facing ever
rising production costs whilst trying to give value for money in seat prices
commensurate with the venue. Trying to attract people to join is not easy with
competition from TV and internet and exhausting working conditions for many.
