We moved there in 2022 and here you can see our [Earlier Shows at WAC](https://studio61.org.uk/earlier?hsLang=en). From 2011 to 2020 we performed at [The Victory Hall](https://studio61.org.uk/victory-hall?hsLang=en) in Lower Penn where we installed black curtains, a lighting rig and raked seating to create a 'black box' theatre. Between 1999 and 2011 we set up [The Malthouse](https://studio61.org.uk/malthouse?hsLang=en) at Wightwick Manor as an intimate studio theatre (thanks in no small part to Monty Smith being both a member of Studio 61 and the retiring property manager at Wightwick). In 1992 we moved to the Derry Hall at [Wolverhampton Grammar School](https://studio61.org.uk/wgs?hsLang=en) where we presented both 'on stage' and 'in the round' productions. **Prior to this we performed at The Adult Education College in Old Hall Street in the (then) town centre.** The group first produced plays at The Wolverhampton and Staffordshire [Technical College](https://studio61.org.uk/technical-college?hsLang=en) in Wulfruna Street, now part of the University. - ![Adult College Building](https://studio61.org.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Adult%20College/Adult%20College%20Building.jpg?width=640&height=427&name=Adult%20College%20Building.jpg) Here is a list of the  plays we performed at The Adult Education College: - 1992 Merry Wives Of Windsor by William Shakespeare - 1992 Blithe Spirit by Noel Coward - 1991 Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw - 1991 How The Other Half Loves by Alan Ayckbourn - 1991 Lord Arthur Saville's Crime by Constance Cox - 1990 Bitter Sanctuary by Rosemary Anne Sissons - 1990 And A Little Love Besides by Alan Plater - 1989 The Country Wife by William Wycherley - 1989 Time And The Conways by J B Priestley - 1988 A Voyage Round My Father by John Mortimer - 1988 East Lynne by Mrs Henry Wood and John Burton - 1988 The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov - 1987 Come As You Are by John Mortimer - 1987 The Crucible by Arthur Miller - 1987 A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare - 1986 You Can't Take It With You by Moss Hart and George S Kaufman - 1986 Pride And Prejudice by Helen Jerome, adapted from the novel by Jane Austen - 1986 The Enquiry by Charlotte Hastings - 1985 Semi-Detached by David Turner - 1985 The Cocktail Party by T S Eliot - 1985 The Tempest by William Shakespeare - 1984 The Deep Blue Sea by Terence Rattigan - 1984 The Seagull by Anton Chekhov - 1984 Waiting In The Wings by Noel Coward - 1984 The Room by Harold Pinter and The Real Inspector Hound by Tom Stoppard - 1983 The Pillars Of Society by Henrik Ibsen - 1983 The Devil's Disciple by George Bernard Shaw - 1983 Ten Times Table by Alan Ayckbourn - 1982 All My Sons by Arthur Miller - 1982 Night Must Fall by Emlyn Williams - 1982 A Family And A Fortune by Julian Mitchell, based on the novel by Ivy Compton-Burnett - 1981 Toad Of Toad Hall by A A Milne - 1981 Separate Tables by Terence Rattigan - 1981 Table Manners by Alan Ayckbourn - 1980 Three Sisters by Anton Chekhov - 1980 Winter Journey by Clifford Odet - 1980 The Shadow Of A Gunman by Sean O'Casey - 1979 Mixed Doubles: An Entertainment On Marriage by Alan Ayckbourn et al - 1979 A Letter From The General by Maurice McLoughlin - 1979 Hedda Gabler by Henrik Ibsen - 1978 The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie by J Presson Allen, adapted from the novel by Muriel Spark - 1978 The Paragon by Roland and Michael Pertwee - 1978 Time Remembered by Jean Anouilh - 1977 Rain by John Colton and Clemence Randolph, adapted from Miss Thompson by Somerset Maugham - 1977 Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas - 1977 Habeas Corpus by Alan Bennett - 1976 John Gabriel Borkman by Henrik Ibsen - 1976 Hay Fever by Noel Coward - 1976 The Right Honourable Gentleman by M Bradley-Dyne - 1975 The Gioconda Smile by Aldous Huxley - 1975 When We Are Married by J B Priestley - 1974 The Potting Shed by Graham Greene - 1974 Little Boxes by John Bowen - 1974 Hobson's Choice by Harold Brighouse - 1973 The Night Of The Iguana by Tennessee Williams - 1973 Celebration by Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall - 1973 The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov - 1972 Traveller Without Luggage by Jean Anouilh - 1972 Juno And The Paycock by Sean O'Casey - 1971 Hodie: The Nativity from The Fall And Redemption Of Man by John Bowen and Waiting For Christmas, based on Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens - 1971 The Importance Of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde - 1971 England, Our England by Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall - 1971 Crowns And Commons - selected readings - 1970 A Scent Of Flowers by James Saunders [Health and Safety](https://studio61.org.uk/health-and-safety?hsLang=en) | [Equal Opportunities](https://studio61.org.uk/equal-opportunities?hsLang=en) | [Privacy Policy](https://studio61.org.uk/privacy-policy?hsLang=en) | [GDPR](https://studio61.org.uk/general-data-protection-regulation?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2026, Studio 61
