Full details on our website - https://www.mortimer-dramatic.org/spygame-auditions/
‘The author of Curtain Up on Murder and Murder Weekend has woven “an intense web of deceit, intrigue and secrets”.
Prospective contestants for a TV reality show gather in a country house, aiming to win a large cash prize, but only if they survive the rigours of the ultimate Spygame.’We'd love to hear from anyone who wants to help put on the production, and we'll show you the ropes if it's all completely new to you, as we want you to enjoy learning and being a part of it all.
We're an amateur dramatic group that's been running for 70+ years, and are always welcoming of volunteers, for both front- and back-stage.
Get in touch through our website or social media, details here: https://www.mortimer-dramatic.org/get-in-touch/
Our aim is to provide a safe, happy and stimulating environment that encourages learning through play for children aged 2 to 5 years.
The pre-school is warm and inviting, offering a caring and nurturing environment where children can play and learn. We offer a wide range of activities, including baking, gardening and messy play.
We are a four-part choir singing a mixture of music, from mediaeval to modern. We sing for fun and give concerts in Berkshire and North Hampshire. We rehearse in Mortimer on Thursdays at 7:30. Why not join us? Male voices especially welcome!

Originally built as a church hall in 1908, St John's Hall is now run by a small group of local trustees as a charitable service for the community, providing a space for people and organisations to use at a reasonable rate.
Set in the centre of Mortimer Village with its own parking and within easy reach of all the local shops and amenities, St John's Hall is a great venue for community, corporate and private events, including parties, yoga and dance clubs, exhibitions, concerts, dinners and more. We love that it gets lots of ambient light from tall windows on three sides, and has a beautiful high wood-beamed ceiling.
The main hall provides an adaptable and multi-purpose space and is comfortably able to host events both large and small. It has a kitchen equipped to cope with most catering requirements, tables and padded chairs if needed, and a purpose-built stage area with lighting and dressing rooms.
