I'm in S12 & looking for a local Am Dram group, it's not something I've done before but am hoping it'd be a good way to build my confidence. I've heard there are lots of groups in Sheffield but not having much luck finding info.

I'm 31 (going on 21) if that makes a difference. And also completely broke so free or very cheap would be good.

Thanks in advance.

You might find our advanced search useful- http://www.sheffieldhelpyourself.org.uk/advanced.asp

You can choose to search with one keyword (DRAMA) and one postal district (wherever you live).

We've got up-to-date details of 35 amateur dramatic groups at the moment all with up-to-date contact information.

Hope this helps!

I joined a group a few years ago and have been actively involved in a whole range of projects since. It is a great way to spend your free time and I have met a great bunch of people as a result.

Give it a go!

try Frecheville Community Centre - think it maybe tuesday nights - they have a great group there
