No matter where you are, the price of fees at a care home are always a topic of conversation… even on holiday!

But behind every conversation is a family, a worker, and a story that deserves to be heard and seen!
Join Westerham Amateur Dramatic Society for Beyond Caring by Christina Castling: a powerful, emotional and thought-provoking production exploring the realities of the care system with honesty, humour and heart.

In preparation for our upcoming production of Beyond Caring, we had the incredible opportunity to take part in a professional acting workshop led by talented actress Shelly Bentley @shellybentleyactor

Together, we explored our characters, relationships, motivations and the emotional realities behind the story to ensure every performance feels as raw, authentic and impactful as possible.

This process has brought our cast even closer and deepened our understanding of the powerful themes within the play, and we cannot wait to share it with you all on stage.

Beyond Caring is funny, emotional, thought-provoking and incredibly relevant for families and friends who have experienced life and work within care home, and this production promises to be something truly special. 🎭✨

Make sure to grab your tickets now before they’re gone; you won’t want to miss this one.

Westerham Amateur Dramatic Society

WADS, celebrated its centenary and installed a plaque commemorating this at our home, Westerham Hall. We continue to put on a broad range of plays and shows – from Chekhov to pantomime; modern drama to Victorian Music Hall; new works to classic favourites. Whether you are interested in appearing on stage, joining in behind the scenes; doing your bit for publicity; helping run the bar or welcoming our audience front of house, we promise you a warm welcome to this friendly society. And if you would like to direct – great! There’s no stuffy hierarchy here.

We also run workshops covering all aspects of performance and theatre production. Our main home is Westerham Hall whose stage we can transform into just about anything or anywhere. And with our state-of-the-art technical facilities, the illusion is complete.

We welcome anyone with enthusiasm, regardless of experience or expertise. Interested? Just e-mail membership@wads.info and we’ll get right back in touch.

As one Member put it: “The great thing about WADS is that they take what they do seriously, but not themselves!”
