PAST PRODUCTIONS
EARLIER SHOWS AT WAC
Here are the earlier shows we performed at Wolverhampton Arts Centre (formerly Newhampton Arts Centre). We moved there in 2022 and here you can see our Recent Shows at WAC.
From 2011 to 2020 we performed at The Victory Hall 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 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 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 in Wulfruna Street, now part of the University.
The plays shown above include 'The Hollow Crown' by John Barton, our first post-Covid show in November 2021 which we performed at St. Bartholomew's Church Hall in Penn.
Also post-Covid, and just before we transferred to Newhampton Arts Centre (as it was then), we had an evening celebrating '61 Years of Studio 61' which was held at Himley Cricket Club. The cast of our 1998 production of 'Educating Rita' met with the cast of our upcoming 2022 production, our first at NAC.
