Act One Drama Society
Act One is Cardiff’s largest drama society.
Every year we put on several productions, all ranging in a variety of genres, and also host our award-winning annual night of original writing - Staging a Coup! If you enjoy acting, dancing, singing, socialising, or are interested in helping backstage with costumes, make-up, set design, publicity, stage management, sound or lighting, then we are the society for you!
Previously winner of 'Best Large Society' for three years in a row, we have a reputation for our friendly atmosphere, impressive productions, imaginative socials (including our annual abroad/domestic trip), and the Act One Ball! We also run smaller-scale productions, workshops and open mic nights. So if you're a fresher and want to direct - or if you don’t get cast in a main production - there are still plenty of opportunities to get involved.
Last year, we delivered a total of 6 productions; Yellow Brick Road Panto, Variety Night: Women in Theatre, Much Ado About Nothing, Staging a Coup, The 39 Steps, and Twisted the Musical. We're super excited for another year of shows, with old and new talent on stage!
