Need to bend our ears about something?

Whether you're interested in joining us as cast, crew, or in a front row seat, we're always here to help.

Our next show London Suite (Nov 19-22) isn't just live drama – it's live music too. We're so grateful to have the talented Matt Penn accompanying our cast on his baby grand piano. It's going to be a night to remember, and tickets are available to book now on our website (link in bio).

Our next show London Suite is fast approaching, so let's meet our director, Ren Katz:

Before coming to #warwickshire Ren was born and raised in San Francisco. The theatre was calling at an early age: she started acting when she was 6, and studied drama at school and university. She's proud to have been part of a broad range of companies, as well as studying with the Actors Theatre in San Francisco.

Flash forward: Ren's lived in the #Kineton area for the past 11 years with her husband and three children. After a career break to raise her kids, she's thrilled to be back in the limelight with KADS, directing our Autumn production.

We're so excited to have Ren's vision and experience onboard for this amazing show. Ready to see it? Book your tickets now on our website (link in bio)

Only two months until our next big show, London Suite. Written by Neil Simon (writer of The Odd Couple), this witty drama promises to be an unforgettable night. So, don't forget to book tickets – available now on our website.

We've got an action-packed Autumn/Winter season here in #kineton and here's what's coming:

Thu 16 Oct: Playreading night at Kineton Village Hall, 7:30pm, where we'll be reading TWO plays by cast member and playwright Ben Keyser. Free entry, open to all.

Nov 19-22: London Suite by Neil Simon – don't miss this fantastic comedy from the writer of The Odd Couple. Tickets available from our website.

We're just about to launch our new website – here's KADS cast member Ben Keyser looking at it right now. Or maybe this is from our production of The 39 Steps. Who can say.

After 44 years of quality amateur drama in #warwickshire we thought we'd better get an Instagram and tell you all about it. Ready to join us? Let's go.
