Background
Founded in 1982 as a local amateur dramatics group, we are now a successful local community association with members drawn from across the North Hampshire and West Surrey areas. Over the years the success of our productions enabled us to grow into a large and financially stable group. After a lot of work, in 1997 the Crondall Entertainers Community Association (C.E.C.A. - Reg. Charity no. 1063032)
was formed. Successfully securing grants from Hart District Council, the National Lotteries Charity Commission, together with our own fund-raising, enabled us to undertake the renovation of a previously derelict community building, the Old Gym, which we re-opened in 2000.
Now, as well as our continued maintenance and upkeep of the Old Gym, we perform a variety of different productions. Over the years these have included comedies, plays, pantomimes, farces, musicals and old time music halls. We also arrange various social activities such as play readings, theatre visits and social evenings.
Welcome
We are always keen to welcome new members and there are lots of opportunities to get involved both onstage and behind the scenes.
If you are interested in amateur dramatics and possibly thinking of joining a group do take a little time to have a look through our website to find out about us and our building, the Old Gym. Then do please either join our mailing list (details are below) and/or get in contact.
We would love to hear from you.
