Get Involved

Want to get involved? Then please do! Whether you are interested in performing (see the Open Auditions link at the bottom of each page) or any of the backstage and business activities needed to run the theatre. Beginners and experienced enthusiasts are equally welcome, and we have many members who'll be glad to introduce you to the full range of our activities including front of house, set building, sound, lighting, stage management, wardrobe, buildings maintenance, and, of course, acting and directing.

The Plaza is busy most days of the week with rehearsals, play readings and public performances. 

If you have not already done so, do come along to see one of our Forthcoming Productions. Alternatively, visit the theatre during a rehearsal (typically Mondays to Thursdays from 7:30pm onwards), or help with a set break (typically starting at 10am on the Sunday after a RAODS show).

Membership benefits include a monthly newsletter, a 25% discount on bar prices (in members-only hours), and access to discounted tickets and training.

If you would like to join us, please complete the online application form. Your membership application will be active as soon as we have received payment when you will receive a welcoming letter. What then...?
