Tiverton Dramatic Society

A very useful site. Thank you.

CONGRATULATIONS to you all at TDS. i attended the first night of Anne Frank and was totally captured from the first bars of Arvo Part's music....the cleverly devised theatre setting,looking like a 1940's timewarp created a feeling of intensity evoking the claustrophobic environment that the Frank family endured.
Careful direction, wonderful timing and suitable symbolism painted a picture that we could all recognise and empathise with.
The casting was perfect and the word perfect cast carried their message with real integrity. It is rare to be given such responsible parts and I especially felt that the young Anne Frank was aware of this and played her part with such clarity and understanding..
I and my friends all agreed that this was amateur dramatics at its best..holding the audience and telling a story in an unforgetable way....
Thank you to you all.
