Unfortunately we didn't win anything at the Southampton Echo Curtain Call Awards, but it was a good night nonetheless!

Are you interested in directing for the SSA?  Do you have experience of directing?  We are currently gathering ideas from potential directors for the Autumn slot, so if you have directed before and have a suggestion let us know!

Pat Howe is currently in the process of organising the AGM, which will take place in May.  Watch this space for further details.

Lots of news!

Our next production will be Goldoni's The Venetian Twins, directed by Steve Blackham.  All the details are on the Current Production page, but the most important thing to note now is that the auditions are on Thursday 5th and Sunday 8th January.

Congratulations to Nick and the cast & crew of A Midsummer Night's Dream - a great production

Congratulations to Lara Hardwick for well deserved recognition at the recent Portsmouth News' Guide Awards - Lara was the runner up in the Best Female Actress (Drama) category for her enchanting lead in last year's Romeo and Juliet.

Congratulations also to Rob Bartlett and Jess Cutting for their nominations as best actor and best actress for Antony & Cleopatra, which was also nominated for best production along with Romeo and Juliet.

Whilst we're on the theme of congratulations, we've just learned that Antony & Cleopatra has received three nominations in the Southampton Echo Curtain Call Awards

Best Actor - Rob Bartlett

Best Actress - Jess Cutting

Best Director - Rob Bartlett

The awards ceremony is in January, so fingers crossed and gladrags on!
