How much are subscriptions?
Subscriptions for 2023 are as follows:

Acting membership: £30
Non-acting membership: £30

Show Fee: As the cost of producing our shows is in the region of £50,000 we ask each cast member to pay one £50 show fee towards this cost, in addition to their annual subscription.

Subscriptions, the Show Fee and the Entrance Fee are set each year at the Annual General Meeting, held during the third week of March.
 

How much does it cost to put on a show?
This can depend on the major cost areas of the production, including set, orchestra, costumes and royalties. For the October shows produced between 2016 and 2022 total expenditure averaged £47,302 per production.
