As I am sure you are now aware (because we keep going on about it!), it is the sixtieth anniversary of the Group’s foundation this year and an article by Lance Bassett gives a potted history of the Group since its inception.

We’ve just uploaded a huge batch of pictures from some of our old productions. They can be found by clicking on KBDG Photo Archive or by visiting Previous Productions above.

There are some excellent pictures of plays produced in the 1960’s and 70’s.

Kingston Bagpuize Drama Group congratulated Linda Hudson, Lance Bassett, Nick O’Keeffe, Margaret Palmer, George Pulley, Ian Ashby and David Greenaway for their long service to the group. Presentations were made to the members at the Group’s annual dinner held at Fallowfields in Southmoor. The dinner marks the start of the Group’s 60th year celebrations.

20th January 2009, Rob Bateman of Kingston Bagpuize Drama Group presents a cheque for £500 to Stan Webb, of the Royal British Legion. This money was raised from a collection taken after the Group’s performance of The Accrington Pals, by Peter Whelan.  The play tells the story of the men of Accrington who went off to fight in World War I and mostly lost their lives, and how this affected the women who were left behind.
