Folkestone-Hythe Operatic & Dramatic Society
Founded back in 1902, the Folkestone-Hythe Operatic & Dramatic Society (FHODS) is one of the country’s oldest amateur dramatic companies.
Based at The Tower Theatre in Folkestone, which is owned and operated by FHODS, the society presents a range of amateur productions – around seven each year – including dramas, comedies, musicals and, of course, our ever-popular pantomime.
Our productions are directed and produced by keen enthusiasts who dedicate a huge amount of time to these projects, with a cast of equally committed amateur performers. A large proportion of the technical crew and front-of-house personnel are also volunteers and they play a huge part in enabling us to give our audiences a great theatre experience.
We welcome new members to the society and anyone can get involved both on and off-stage, and front of house. Membership details, including application form and current rates can be found here.
Join FHODS today!
Joining as a full Active or Youth member allows you to take part in our productions on and off the stage. If you do not wish to be a part of a production, but like to support local theatre you can do so by becoming a Friend of FHODS!
