Hello!!

Welcome to the web site of Tread the Boards, probably the friendliest amateur drama group in Milton Keynes. We are a well-established group that has been "Treading the Boards" of various stages in the Milton Keynes area since 1986. Here you will find a potted history of the group, details of our structure and ideas, our past productions and future plans.

As an ambitious group that wants to expand our dramatic horizons, we are always looking for new members to help us realise our ambitions.

Whether you are a raw beginner or experienced, whatever your interest; acting, backstage, sound, lights, etc., we would welcome you as a member.

Robin Hood - A Great Success!!

Our production of Robin Hood at the Chrysalis Theatre, Willen, on 29th and 30th January has generated highly favourable comments from our audience. A typical email that we have received says: "I wanted to drop you a line to say how much we enjoyed Saturday night; the panto was a really good laugh and brilliantly staged as well, We thought there were some really cracking characters and meticulous script (as always). I also thought the scenery/set were seamless and was really impressed with how the whole show was put together in such a different venue for TTB, it created a very professional atmosphere."

TTB at Newport Pagnell's Christmas Lights event

Saturday, 28th November was the time for the switch on of Newport Pagnell's Christmas Lights and Tread the Boards were there. As well as publicising Robin Hood, were were giving visitors the chance to take part in our "Find Maid Marian" game, the prize being a Christmas Hamper and two complementary tickets to the show. Maid Marian was hiding behind one of 100 trees in Sherwood Forest, and contestants had to guess which one was concealing her.

The winner was Maggie Beal whose grandson Aaron picked the winning tree - number 56! Maggie collected her hamper and tickets from TTB's Publicity Officer, Alex Tsang. Aaron, Maggie and Alex are pictured below.
