**Have you ever fancied being on stage? Or perhaps you'd love to discover what happens behind the scenes?**
For the very first time, Lamproom Theatre Company is hosting a **Season Launch Night**, and we'd love you to join us!
We're preparing for an exciting Spring 2027 season featuring two fantastic productions, and we're inviting current members, prospective new members and anyone interested in community theatre to come along and find out more.
Whether you're a current member of Lamproom Theatre Company, an experienced performer, someone who hasn't acted since school, or perhaps you've never stepped onto a stage before, this could be the perfect opportunity to get involved, meet new people and try something new!
OUR SPRING 2027 PRODUCTIONS
**STEEL MAGNOLIAS**
*By Robert Harling*
📅 7–10 April 2027
**CAST: 6 WOMEN**
Set in a small-town Louisiana beauty salon, *Steel Magnolias* follows six unforgettable women whose friendships are filled with laughter, gossip, love and extraordinary strength.
The characters offer a wonderful range of personalities and opportunities for performers of different ages.
If you enjoy character-driven drama, sharp comedy, emotional storytelling and strong ensemble performances, this could be the production for you!

**QUIZ**
*By James Graham*
📅 25–29 May 2027
**CAST: 4 WOMEN & 7 MEN**
Remember the infamous *Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?* coughing scandal?
*Quiz* brings one of British television's most extraordinary controversies to the stage in a gripping, fast-paced and entertaining play.
Combining television entertainment, courtroom drama, comedy and audience participation, this production offers exciting opportunities for performers who enjoy bringing a variety of characters to life.
There are also opportunities to portray television personalities, contestants, producers, journalists, investigators and other characters.
This could be a brilliant opportunity for actors who enjoy versatility, comedy, character work and fast-moving ensemble theatre.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY IS OUR LAUNCH NIGHT?
We've never held an event quite like this before!
Rather than simply announcing auditions, we want to bring everyone together for a relaxed, friendly and informative evening where you can learn more about the productions before deciding whether you'd like to get involved.
**During the evening, you'll have the opportunity to:**
**MEET THE DIRECTORS**
Hear directly from the directors of both productions as they introduce their shows, share their creative ideas and explain their vision.
**EXPLORE THE CHARACTERS**
Discover the characters, the types of performers the directors are looking for and which roles might interest you.
**FIND OUT ABOUT AUDITIONS**
Learn when auditions will take place, what to expect, how to prepare and how the casting process will work.
**DISCUSS REHEARSAL COMMITMENTS**
Find out about rehearsal dates, schedules and the commitment involved in taking part in a production.
**DISCOVER BACKSTAGE OPPORTUNITIES**
Not interested in performing? That's absolutely fine!
A successful theatre production needs so much more than actors. From costumes, props and scenery to stage management, technical support and helping behind the scenes, there are plenty of ways to get involved.
**MEET OUR MEMBERS**
Enjoy some refreshments, ask questions, meet like-minded people and discover what being part of Lamproom Theatre Company is all about.
## 💛 NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN THEATRE BEFORE?
Then we'd especially love to meet you!
We appreciate that joining a theatre company can seem a little daunting, especially if you don't know anyone or have never auditioned for a show.
That's one of the reasons we're hosting this Launch Night.
**There is absolutely no pressure to audition or make any commitments on the evening.**
Simply come along, meet us, discover the opportunities available and see whether community theatre could be your next new hobby.
You might discover a talent you never knew you had, make some wonderful new friends or become part of something you've always wanted to try.
And to our existing members, this is your opportunity to hear about our new season, catch up with everyone and find out what's coming next!
