CTC are always on the lookout for new members to take part in our productions both onstage and behind the scenes.
Usually, we audition for performing members twice a year around April and September.
We rehearse every Monday and Wednesday just outside of Shepshed, starting at 7pm and finishing no later than 10pm and frequently we’ll reward ourselves with a nice drink at a local watering hole. There are usually a couple of Sunday rehearsals thrown in as we get closer to the show, a schedule is always given out in advance to give you enough time to plan ahead.
If you are interested in joining, whether it’s performing or being part of the backstage team then get in touch. At the bottom of the page there are a few FAQs you can see for further information.
