Group Eight Theatre Company

Formed in 1973, the group was started by only eight people, hence the name ‘Group Eight’. The first production was ‘Bonaventure’. This ran for two nights and actually made a small profit. Since that time many plays, musicals, pantomimes and cabarets have been performed by the group. Recently because of its diversity it was felt a name change was necessary, so the group is now known as ‘The Group Eight Theatre Company’.
