Bringing Stories to Life Onstage

Two people dressed in historical costumes, one holding a letter and the other leaning in, outdoors with a rustic backdrop.

GADS has been staging fresh, fun productions that spark delight and wow audiences for nearly seventy years.

We put on three plays a year - Spring, Summer and Winter - and are located in the beautiful village of Groombridge, on the borders of Kent and East Sussex.

We are a friendly group who welcome newcomers of any age and ability - whether you want to act, direct, help out backstage or just come along to have some tea and/or read-in at rehearsals, there is a place for you at GADS!
