The Grenoside Drama group has been in existence for around 70 years, in various locations, putting on plays once or twice each year. In 2010, a merger was completed with Birley Carr Players, who have a similar history

The combined group, called the Grenoside and Birley Carr Players, is now able to perform a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta in March, and a play in October

Our last operetta was The Pirates of Penzance, one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most popular: the next will be decided at the May AGM

Our most recent play was the thriller Who Lies There. The play for this October will be chosen at the AGM

New members on-stage or off-stage are always welcome. For more information,  go to sites.google.com/site/grenosidebirleycarrplayers/
