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, 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 will also have a fascinating collection of programmes, posters and theatre & cast pictures from down the years on display.
