The Green Room Theatre
Heritage Open Day: Take a backstage tour of this hidden gem of a theatre sited in a set of WWII Army barracks The Green Room Theatre was built during WWII by the Canadian Army as barracks for their troops prior to shipping out for D-Day. Dorking Dramatic & Operatic Society (DDOS) moved in during the 1960's and has called it home ever since. They have converted 3 huts into backstage, dressing rooms, 86-seat theatre & bar and use a 4th one as a unit for building & storing sets, props & wardrobe!
Members of the society will be serving up teas, coffees & cakes, costumed in appropriate period dress, and will take you on a guided tour around the theatre which has been used for numerous musicals and plays over the last 60 years.
DDOS is also celebrating its 100th anniversary this year and will have a fascinating collection of programmes, posters and theatre & cast pictures from down the years on display.
