Dates for read throughs, auditions and workshops have been announced as follows:
The Good Life
June 13th to 15th
Comedy TV Play – The Good Life
For the first time on the TATS stage we brought you the wonderful tv comedy, ‘The Good Life’
A milestone birthday convinces Tom Good to make a change and he talks his wife, Barbara, into giving up the so-called rat race and joining him in a life of simplicity and self-sufficiency. They convert their suburban home into a farm, which doesn’t go down too well with their middle class neighbours Margot and Jerry.
What a fabulous job our talented team did in portraying some true tv legends supported by a super set and props including a rather rude pooing goat!
Well done to Jan Clemens for stepping in at the last minute and yet again directing a true TATs classic.

Show Biz Quiz 2024
The very popular TATS annual showbiz quiz took place in Turvey Village Hall on 26th January.
Eleven teams fought a fierce contest 
But someone had to win… and this year it was ‘The Clangers’ (Turvey bellringers). Many congratulations to them.
It takes a lot of work to stage these evenings, so many thanks to our quiz masters, David and John, and to the rest of the TATS team who supported in a variety of roles, this time off stage!
We even got the chance for the whole hall to sing a special 79th happy birthday to our wonderful ex chairman Rosemary, who also captained her team, ‘Rosemary’s Babies’, to the ‘runners up’ spot in the contest.
Finally… We would like to thank all our competitors for making the effort to support us and making it so enjoyable, and we look forward to seeing you all again at our future shows and events.
