Sidmouth Amateur Dramatic Society Win NODA Award

Members of SADS were thrilled to hear that a National Operatic and Dramatic Society Award for Excellence was awarded for their production of Dancing at Lughnasa by Brian Friel.

Pictured are left: Joan Heard, the play's Director, centre: Geraldine Branton NODA President right: Tony Hill, Lighting Designer, when they received the award at the Association's AGM held recently at Bicton.

Joan said 'she was so pleased when the award was announced - pleased for SADS and the incredible actors and production team who worked so hard to bring this wonderful play to the Manor Pavilion stage. There was such a strong sense of ‘family’ amongst cast and crew, - indeed the bonds formed during this production still exist a year later - I heard two ‘sisters’ greet one another at the Panto auditions in Irish accents! I am very proud to have worked with such a dedicated team'

Joan is currently directing the SADS annual Pantomime Treasure Island - tickets for which go on sale at the Manor Pavilion Box Office on 1st October. The Box Office has recently re-opened after the summer break, and tickets for the SADS October production of J B Priestly's classic comedy When We Are Married, directed by Hilary Hatherley, are now on sale.
