Present Day
The Drama Club currently stages around four productions a year in the Thwaites Empire Theatre in Blackburn. The time that spans these productions makes up a 'season'. At the start of a season, usually in the months of June and July, play readings and auditions are held at the theatre. Rehearsals usually begin six weeks before a production.
New members often come across the Drama Club via their website, which can be accessed below, or local directories and tourism adverts. To become a member, subscription currently stands at £10 a year.
As well as stage productions, the club also do a variety of other dramatisations, such as outdoor events, radio plays (mainly for BBC Radio Lancashire) and amateur films.

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“Thus hulling in
The wild sea of my conscience, I did steer
Toward this remedy, whereupon we are
Now present here together.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Life’s so short, Katie. You have to make every moment count. It’s not easy to do, you know. I don’t think that a day goes by when I don’t turn my back on some small thing or some issue somewhere. But it’s so short, Katie. If you’re not careful, the days go by and all you have time for is regret.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
