Hailsham Theatres has been running since 1934 in one form or another. Hailsham Theatres was formed from the amalgamation of two groups, Conrose Players and C.A.T.S (Community Association Theatrical Section).
Historically, C.A.T.S were the ‘panto’ section, and Conrose Players performed plays.
Many members of each group were the same people, and it was decided that it would be more time effective and better use of people’s skills to bring the two groups together.
The knowledge and experience from both sides gave Hailsham Theatres the opportunity to produce more varied productions.
Hailsham Theatres is very much a family group, some members started as young enthusiastic children and are still with the society many years on!
