Waddington Dramatic Society
NODA WINNER !! A centre of excellence in amateur theatre for over fifty years.
Our theatre company serves the Lincolnshire village of Waddington and the wider, surrounding districts of Lincoln, performing all aspects of dramatic theatre, from tense thrillers, to comedies and pantomime. We are not limited to the production of plays by well-known authors, but have also performed and tested unpublished plays by local writers.
Auditions for our latest production Arsenic and Old Lace will be held at Waddington village hall, Mere lane Waddington on the 23rd July 2026 at 19:00. It will be an informal read through of the script. All welcome. For further information contact e-mail: auditions@waddington-ds.co.uk
The plot revolves around the Brewster family, who are eccentric and charming aunts living in Brooklyn. They are known for their charitable acts of letting rooms to lonely old men, believing it is a form of charity, with misguided results! Their nephew, Teddy, who believes he is Theodore Roosevelt, is their main accomplice. The play explores themes of family, madness, and the macabre, as the Brewsters’ actions lead to a series of murders and confessions that unravel their dark secrets.
