Production Postponed - Look out for details of rehearsal and production dates next year
As an ensemble piece, all cast playing main roles will be required for every rehearsal. Smaller parts will have individual rehearsals initially and then become more involved as the production nears.
Parking at Waterbeach School Due to on-going building works at the School, it is expected that there will be little parking at the school itself. If arriving by car, please allow extra time if you need to park in one of the streets nearby and walk from there. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
