Theatre Group

West Camel Theatre Group (also know as the Little Barn Theatre Group)

The philosophy behind the West Camel Theatre Group is inclusivity as captured on the back of the Sinbad the Sailor pantomime programme in 1998:
‘The group welcomes members of all ages (free of charge) from this and neighbouring Parishes regardless of talent or experience. No auditions are held, if you want to be in a production, or part of the production team, you are in. You can give it a try and drop out if not enjoying yourself or add your own contribution to productions as they develop.’

If you are interested in knowing more, please email Chloe White on westcameltheatregroup@gmail.com or join our Facebook page.

What’s up next?

We have just concluded a two night extravaganza “A Night at the Musicals” in January 2026, which was a fantastic celebration of all things musical. Take a look at the facebook page for photos.

The next pantomime will be on the 28th to 30th of January 2027, with rehearsals starting in September 2026. We typically rehearse on Sunday afternoons 16:30 to 18:30. Click here for more details on our “Information Workshop” on the 7th of June.

If you are unable to attend this, but are interested, please email westcameltheatregroup@gmail.com and let us know what you are interested in i.e. acting/backstage/front of house etc, and our director Andy will contact you (anyone under 18 needs to have a parental/carer contact).

…..once upon a time we wanted to ‘do a show’ and very generously Ann and Tim Marsh said we could do it in their Little Barn. As if by magic a stage was erected with curtains and ‘wings’ and rehearsals began…Read more here

We have collected an archive of previous productions, programmes and press articles where possible. Please find a list of these here

Costume Hire

The theatre group have 30 years worth of costumes and props, many of which we reuse, but these can be hired for a small charge. Please let us know if you are interested and would like to come and have a look at what we have.
