Hyde Little Theatre

For many years Hyde Light Opera Company had a drama group performing plays and entering drama festivals. This drama group continued to attract growing interest and it was decided to form a new society to perform plays on a regular basis at the Festival Theatre in Hyde.

The new society was established in 1967 under the name of Hyde Little Theatre and performed its first production that year, this was the comedy ‘Billy Liar’ a popular and topical choice at the time. Throughout the 1970’s a steady growth in membership and support continued and the society became a familiar name in Greater Manchester amateur theatre.
