10/03/12 | SOS is in operation! Thanks to the generosity of our wonderful audiences during the pantomime, and the charitable donation of £500 from The Emlyn Circle in January, we have already made a good start in re-covering out seats. Thanks to the efforts of Winston Munn we now have a total of 12 seats completed and another 6 almost finished. Come along to our next production and see for yourselves, you will be amazed at the transformation. Click here to read more about the "Save Our Seats" campaign.

23/11/11 | Avast me hearties! Good news from the Attic Players… Captain Hook is about to finish off Peter Pan and the crafty crocodile once and for all…or is he?! You’ll have to come to see this years fantastic Pantomime to find out for sure, and if you can work out the plot, could you please let us know! "Captain Hook's Revenge" opens on December the 8th at The Attic Theatre.

14/10/11 | Coming soon to a pirate ship near you! "Captain Hook's Revenge" by Richard Coleman, a hilarious Peter Pan-themed pantomime, is currently in production under the fabulous direction of Carol Wierzbicki. 

14/10/11 | Thank you for the wonderful support shown recently for the production of "Old Money", a murder mystery set in the late Victorian era, written and directed by Suzanne Munn. This play proved to be very popular with our audiences, playing to a full house on the last night! All the cast enjoyed the experience, and worked hard to bring the Victorian atmosphere alive. Well done to all concerned! Click here to see some photos of the production.

12/08/11 | We're just two weeks away from opening night of a brand new play at The Attic Theatre! "Old Money" is a Victorian whodunit, written and directed by Attic's own Suzanne Munn. This is the first time the play is being performed and we're all really excited to see it in front of an audience. Why not come along and excercise those 'little grey cells' to see if you can separate the clues from the red herrings, while enjoying the sumptuous ambience of the period.

21/06/11 | Congratulations to Neil James on his fantastic directorial debut with "The Exorcism" - the play was very well received and proved an excellent experience for all the cast and crew. The cottage has sadly been dismantled (not by a ghost I hasten to add!) to make way for the next exciting Attic ventures.

Following that will be Victorian whodunnit, "Old Money", written and directed by Attic's own Suzanne Munn. Rehearsals have already started, and countless bustles and bows are being assembled! "Old Money" will be performed during late August and early September. Watch this space for more news!
