Chandler’s Ford Chameleon Theatre Company was formed in 1965 and their members are busy planning events to celebrate their 50th Anniversary.
Recruitment from Chameleon Theatre Company:
Do you want to be part of the Company that stages an Alan

Pantomime? Then come and join us at Chameleons.
We meet every Tuesday at The Ritchie Hall (from 7.30pm) to rehearse the current production.
Members not involved with the current production can come along to watch the rehearsal, join in a play reading in the green room, stay for the coffee break and then adjourn to the local pub.
We perform four productions a year in January, April, July and October with one production being a pantomime.
