Act One Drama Society
Act One is Cardiff’s largest drama society.
We provide creative opportunities, whether it’s performing on-stage or programme design, from sound tech to social nights out. Alongside these we have a number of different projects, such as our award-winning night of original writing - Staging a Coup or our recent addition of Audio Drama. If you enjoy the world of theatre and all it has to offer then Act One is the place to be!
Previously winner of 'Best Large Society' for three years in a row, we have a reputation for our friendly atmosphere, elaborate productions, original socials such as ‘Murder Mystery’ and the Act One Christmas & Summer Balls! The society also runs workshops and smaller performance opportunities like the 'Open Mic Night'. So if you're looking to challenge yourself and learn new skills, there are plenty of opportunities to do so.
Last year's productions were: The Small Mermaid Pantomime, Love’s Labour’s Lost, Variety Night: Out of Character, Pride and Prejudice and The Importance of Being Earnest. We have also previously done: RENT, Twelfth Night, Jungle Juice the Panto, Posh and beat. a play on words and many more! We're super excited for another year of great shows, we look forward to seeing you at auditions!
