In the charity's own words
We provide the opportunity for members to take part in musical theatre productions either on or off stage, thus bringing high quality, affordable shows to the public in and around Hereford. We run a successful Youth section, which performs its own shows and also offers the opportunity for its members to participate in main company shows, when there are suitable parts (e.g. "Annie"; "Oliver!")
