The competition in the Semi-Finals of the All England Festival was extremeley tough and despite giving possibly one of the best performances yet of After The Picnic, our brilliant girls in the youth group didn't quite make it through to the final. Obviously everyone was hugely dissapointed, but this was a fantastic achievement for them. Well done to everyone involved!

Following the win for best youth play in the Worcestershire round of the All England Festival, we were invited to take After The Picnic forward to the quarter finals for Western Division - and we won!!  So our talented youth group is off to Evesham Arts Centre on Saturday 17th May to enter the semi-final stage of the competition.  And if we win that it's Essex next for the All England final - and then the UK final!  Come and support the girls if you can.  They've worked really hard and are a credit to Theatre 282

Festival success once again for our fabulous youth group.  After presenting 'After The Picnic' to enthusiastic audiences at Blakedown, the youth group, under the direction of Ben Moseley, went on to the Worcestershire round of the All England Theatre Festival and for the second year in a row, came away as winners of the best youth play.  Fantastic!!
