6 nights of drama
Please Note: Saturday 21st at 7pm
We are very pleased to be welcoming the Welwyn Drama Festival once again.
It’s their 87th year and they provide a wonderful week of entertaining, dramatic competition.
There are two or three short (one-act) plays each night. Teams must adhere to the festival rules and will be awarded marks by a professional GoDa adjudicator for acting, production, stage presentation and dramatic achievement. The winning team is awarded the prestigious Welwyn Cup, and the chance to perform at the National Drama Festival (formerly the British All-Winners Festival). The other awards presented on the final night include an Audience Appreciation Award, voted for by those who purchased one of the great-value Festival Season Tickets.
