Final Auditions for Railway Children – open to all

Due to the difficulties of trying to get enough people together at the same time for auditions over the summer holiday period and because we are aware of several people who were on holiday during the previous auditions who would like to audition, we have decided to hold one further final audition for The Railway Children.
We are meeting at Brook Hall on Sunday August 22nd at 7pm.
We would like everyone possible to come along even if you have auditioned already, we would like to see you again so we can see how you all look together.

Ghost Writer – cancelled

It is with regret that we have to let you know that we have had to withdraw our youth entry ‘Ghost Writer’ from this years Woking festival.

There are a great number of parts and we were unable to cast it due to the lack of children who auditioned.

It is hoped that we will revisit this at another time.

We would like to thank Amanda for putting forward the play and for offering to be director.
