Bolsover Drama Group recently took part in the Bolsover Gala held in Hornscroft Park

Bolsover Drama Group are celebrating success at the recent NODA East Midlands awards, picking up awards for two of their productions – including a first win for the group’s Youth Section.

…It is lovely to see such a large group of youngsters, especially so many young boys, enjoying taking part in musical theatre…

Never work with children or animals is a showbiz adage but one which Bolsover Drama Group have wisely chosen to ignore…

At the Youth Section showcase performance of ‘Saint Kevins’ on Saturday 27th November the 2015 recipient of the Jack Elliott Trophy was announced as Jared Higgins

The auditions for our October 2016 production of ‘Aida’ took place on 9th and 16th June.

Wedding jitters are at their peak in the run-up to the busiest time of the year for getting hitched…

Bolsover Drama Group are proud to again be nominated for NODA East Midlands awards

Congratulations to Ann Bashford who won our ‘Spot the Arrow’ game which was run during our production of ‘Robin Hood and Babes in the Wood’.

The whole show from start to finish was lively, entertaining and colourful with the sets, props, lighting and costumes adding the finishing touch…

This is the company’s finest panto for years and if justice is done, Bolsover Drama Group will be making way for another trophy in its cabinet.

On Tuesday 12th January at the Assembly Rooms a casting committee met to cast the 2016 play, Sailor Beware.

… Every congratulation must go to Ray Hall who skillfully directed his first show for the group, to all the backstage crew and to the wonderful cast whose obvious hard work, commitment and enthusiasm made this a most entertaining piece of theatre.

On Bank Holiday Sunday, 30th August, members of Bolsover Drama Group donned their walking boots to take part in a sponsored walk to raise funds for the group.

The group would like to congratulate two of our members, Dale Shaw and Michelle Simpson, who tied the knot in July at Kelham Hall, Newark.

We are grateful to local taxi firm Bolsover Cars for assisting with the promotion of the group and this production by sponsoring a new banner which has been displayed in Bolsover.

Ahead of our production of ‘Bonnie & Clyde’ our musical director, Nigel Turner, spoke to Elastic FM’s Linda Holmes.

… It’s an American dream of a show, a shoot ‘em up adventure with a love story at its heart and fabulous songs …

Bolsover Drama Group’s Bonnie and Clyde, Leanne Collins and Dale Shaw, spoke to Linda Holmes from Elastic FM

… The sets, props, lighting and sound were all of a high standard and the thirty children of the chorus together with the principal cast excelled in this challenging production …
