About

Our community theatrical not-for-profit organisation has been performing at the Sandgate Town Hall since 1958, at that time starting with a donation of £5,5s from the local Rotary group under the name ‘The Sandgate Little Theatre Group’.

Currently operating under the name of Sandgate Theatre Inc., our group voluntarily produces and performs three major productions a year, as well as: The One Acts – a collection of one-act plays and skits put together in one performance, and The Yarrageh Drama Festival, with amateur theatre groups from throughout South-East Queensland presenting their best one-act plays here at Sandgate. Our plays range from hilarious comedies to serious dramas.

We will be performing in 2024 at the beautiful Sandgate Town Hall.

We are always looking for new actors and directors for our plays. To be an actor you don’t have to have prior experience as enthusiasm is all that’s needed. Directors need some experience of directing. If you’ve got a play you’d like to put on, get in touch. If you’d like to give directing a try, you can start with a one act play. We usually do these once a year, so keep your eye out for notices.

If acting or directing don’t interest you, we also need people to work backstage, handle administration, make costumes and props, design posters and newsletters, build and paint sets, use sound and lighting equipment, and work Front of House (selling drinks, tickets at the door, etc).

Photographers, singers, bookkeepers, make-up artists, carpenters, computer wizards and people who can play musical instruments are all useful in amateur theatre.
