Forthcoming events

12th - 15th March 2025
Swan Studio Theatre 
Last Tango in Little Grimley / The Fat Lady Sings in Little Grimley

The Swan Theatre Amateur Company (STAC) will be presenting two of David Tristram’s popular one-act plays, Last Tango in Little Grimley and The Fat Lady Sings in Little Grimley at the Swan Studio, Worcester from Wednesday 12th March to Saturday 15th March at 7.45pm.

The four members of the Little Grimley Amateur Dramatic Society committee are desperate to come up with a play that will attract bigger audiences, so their enthusiastic Chairman and director, Gordon, persuades them to be more adventurous. "There's only one thing that sells tickets these days" he argues, "Sex!". We witness the chaotic and hilarious build-up to an evening of extraordinary home-grown drama, as diva Margaret, timid Joyce and reluctant Bernard are drawn into producing an event the locals will never forget.

Following their sizzling success, the team are faced with a new battle when a rival am-dram group starts up in the village. Determined to upstage them with an award-winning musical, our resilient quartet pull together to devise an ingenious military-style operation that doesn't go quite to plan. Add in a few emotional complications for Gordon, and things look a little grim for Little Grimley. Could this finally be the end of their society?

Tickets are £14.00, available from Worcester Theatres online, Huntingdon Hall box office - 01905 611427, or at The Swan Theatre from 7.15pm for that night’s performance only, subject to availability.

Jack and the Giant Stalk

Taking the UK by storm since 2004, the Market Theatre’s Adult Panto Company are back on tour and out to corrupt another classic fairy tale beyond recognition with their unique style of Adult Panto.

Can the fearless company of just 3 actors hold it all together and pull off their very own adult version of Jack and the Beanstalk using a minimum of set props and costume?

Get ready for an evening of slick, fast-moving, farcical fun and bawdy sexual innuendo for adults only.

Not suitable for under 16’s.
