Heathfield & District

Theatre & Live Music Group

This group is for U3A members who enjoy theatre outings and live music performances. With the exception of January and February we attend local matinee productions most months.

Our programme is deliberately varied and offers something for almost every taste. Outings have included Shakespeare by candlelight, commedia dell'arte, open-air theatre, contemporary drama, murder mystery suppers, musical theatre, political satirists, tribute bands and amateur dramatic productions.

Where possible, members share transport, with pick-up available at Mill Road car park in Heathfield. We occasionally attend evening events, but only when there are sufficient numbers to make a minibus viable.

Members are free to choose any events of interest, with no expectation to support the group by attending events that do not appeal to them.

Details of forthcoming performances are published on the U3A website, Facebook page and circulated by email. We also have a WhatsApp group for the latest updates and information.

Suggestions from members are always welcome. If you would like to join the group, please contact me to be added to the mailing list and let me know your favourite genres. Member recommendations help shape our programme and ensure a wide variety of events for everyone to enjoy.

Pictured below one of our regular haunts - the Devonshire Park Theatre, a Grade II listed Victorian playhouse in the heart of Eastbourne's Devonshire Quarter. Just a short stroll from both the seafront and, fortunately for us, an excellent ice cream parlour.
